I was told I had Giant Cell but now they think it is Takayasu's. Do you support people on this site with takayasu's? I am waiting for the relevent test and scans.

Hi Kath

This site is for anyone with any sort of vasculitis. There are a number of Takyasu patients who are members of Vasculitis UK and hopefully some of them will also post and read on HealthUnlocked. Hope you get a proper diagnosis soon.
