I am 57 years old and have Luekocytoclastic vasculitis. I'm currently on Humera and prednisone in hopes of getting it under control. I had the a very intense outbreak a week ago and am just now begining to feel better. I'm here because for support primarily and to find others who may be going through similar challenges. I contracted Hep C after a blood transfusion and that is the systemic cause for the vasculitis. Any support would be much appreciated. Also if you know of any other sites I might visit would be a big help.
Thank you,
Faithful
