Hi, if you don't mind me asking what type of vasculitis do you have?

I also have MPA (diagnosed in 2012) and I'm a participant in DCVAS and PEXIVAS clinical trials. Quite interesting that participants in these trials are spread far and wide.

I was told I had unspecified vasculitis last year but now they say they are not sure as bloodwork also shows lupus! As my symptoms are all the same as vasculitis they has me to join the study.
