Hi there. I was diagnosed with vasculitis with kidneys at 15% function in January. Have responded really well to cyclophosphamide infusions and prednisone tablets. Feeling great now and blood results improving all the time. Best of luck to your Mum. Feel free to PM me with questions. How is she getting on now?
