New here- Help with VASCULITIS
Hi. I am the mother of a 17 yr old (daughter) with Crohn's. She was diagnosed at 12 and after several years of misery, was in complete remission with humira and imuran for the last 2+ yrs.
I come here today with a new deveolpment and I hope some of you are familiar. She started with erythema nodosum in early Oct. We checked it out and treated with short steroid run. Soon after she started getting red spots and bumps on her feet. They got painful and finally her feet started swelling. Vasculitis. More steroids for that. Helped a little while. now off the steroids and the swelling is coming back. We saw a rheumy who is great, but he is unsure the cause.
Anyone deal with vasculitis/swelling of feet and ankles with humira?
Thanks
