Dad Microscopic Polyangiitis
Hi Everyone Dad has just finished his sixth course of Cyclophosphamide and has been told he will now have to take Azathioprine for at least 2 years. He only has kidney involvement. I was wondering whether anyone can tell me whether the Azathioprine has an affect on quality of life. He's struggling

About me - as at September 2016
Investigation took almost a year, and in October 2014 I was confirmed with stage 3 Chronic Kidney Disease, caused by Vasculitis (
Microscopic
Polyangiitis
). Treatment with cyclophosphomide (six infusions) and steroid, followed by maintenance on azathioprine, stabilised the condition.

Vasculitis Specialist
Hi all, I wonder if anyone can tell me who would be our nearest Vasculitis Specialist for
Microscopic
Polyangiitis
in the Dundee area please? At present my Mum sees a Renal specialist who we have no complaints about but I think it might be valuable for her to see a Vasculitis Specialist??

My mum was diagnosed with
Microscopic
Polyangiitis
in May 2014 and initially was treated with high dose prednisolone and several cycles of cyclophosphamide infusion and then went on to Azathioprine and low dose prednisolone and she has been on the latter for over a year now.

Microscopic Polyangiitis
I was diagnosed with MPA in 2007. You have to experience its symptoms to understand just how painful they are. My kidneys took a hit, but the burning, jabbing pain when my inflamed blood vessels failed to deliver enough blood to my peripheral nerves almost drove me out of my mind. I was treated with

Are there specific genetic risk factors for the different forms of ANCA-associated vasculitis?
There is continuous debate about whether Wegener's granulomatosis (WG),
microscopic
polyangiitis
(MPA) and Churg–Strauss syndrome (CSS) represent one disease entity. http://ard.bmj.com/content/70/4/707.short

Hi every one. I am confused about dose of Azathioprine. My Chest Phys. says reduce the amount but Rheumatologist says not.
I have had
Microscopic
Polyangiitis
for about two years which is controlled by 150mg Azathioprine per day, I finished taking steriods last March.
