I was diagnosed with vasculitis when I was 14, I am now 17 and i have successfully recovered. The reason i’m making this post is because I want to meet others close to my age who have this illness. Email me at sarahyehet@gmail.com if you would like to talk

Greetings Starseed777,

Believe it or not, Vasculitis is being diagnosed increasingly in younger people. I am 23 years old and I was diagnosed a few years ago. I was shocked, upset, frightened and all the other emotions I'm sure you've felt with this diagnosis. This forum is a place where you'll find many people who are 'in the same boat' as you. You are not alone. I'm wishing you continued improvement with your health. Don't let this illness stop you from achieving greatness. 🙂
