I have vasculitis in at least, my legs. I had an area just beneath the side of my left knee that felt different than the rest of my skin. No one noticed it. I had to insist that it be biopsied and it came back positive for small vessel vasculitis. It felt somewhat more firm than the rest of the skin and was kind of white...

There are other areas on my legs with a strange appearance. My legs are shiny and reddish about top of socks high and then there are some small rounded areas that are kind of darkish red and somewhat painful. I keep showing these to every doctor I see, I including Rheumatologists.

Tomorrow, I am going to see the Rheumy and we will address this again...
