I have granulomatosis

Posted by bajcsg2468 @bajcsg2468, Sep 3 2:11pm

I’m 79 . Was diagnosed with Granulomatosis in 2017. Have lost sight in left eye. Have the saddle nose ., On mycophenolate 500 twice daily!

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Autoimmune Diseases Support Group.

Why mycophenolate? I have Granulomatosis with Polyangiitis. Have been in GPA communities for over 7 years. Have never heard of mycophenolate as a treatment option. Perhaps you need a second opinion on diagnosis and recommended drug therapy.

I know ! Never know what to do with GPA! Don’t think doctors really know either. Just a guess and try . Saw my Rheumatologist this week . After reading a message from my retina doctor rheumatologist said “your case is so complicated I think you need to go to Dallas to see a specialist “! I thought he was a specialist. Will contact my eye doctor tomorrow to see what he saw at my visit with him ? The disease is almost too much to deal with then adding doctor saying you need to go see someone else . Anyone with GPA in the Dallas area ?
