Remission???

My daughter was diagnosed with Systemic Vasculitis 4 years ago. The only thing that has happened is that the symptoms continue and get worse. No sign of any remission as I understand it. Any help will be very much appreciated. A worried Aussie Mum.

Could you tell us what medication your daughter is taking at the moment 02061949?

I believe we have the answer to John's question above in your previous posts, Aussie mum. I would just say that, without appropriate treatment, generally a high dose immunosuppressant along with high dose steroids to begin with, your daughter is unlikely to enter remission. Have you got any further with an appointment with a specialist? How is she doing now?
