I came down with all this crap in September and am on oxygen all the time. I have flare-ups and must go on prednisone till the the flare -ups clear up. Hands break out in sores to the point where I can hardly use them. Anyone else have this kind of problem?

Hi Lyricssong,

Sorry to hear you are having a rough time of things at the moment.

What type of Vasculitis do you have and is courses of prednisolone your only treatment ( that would be unusual )?

Where are you seen, as Keys says, it is unusual just to have prednisolone? What type of Vasculitis do you have?
