Hi

I agree, you should consult your specialist who is prescribing the Omnacortil. She may need different treatment.

If you read vasculitis.org.uk/ there is a section on diet.

Good Luck let us know how you get on.

Hi Jayesh, You should really make sure your mum sees a rhuematologist and possibly a dermatologist if a rash ensues as is the norm with most forms of vasculitus. As for food a low salt, protien diet with some added vitamins should help. if you go to vasculitus.orguk/about it will tell you more about foods.
