Granulomatosis With Polyangiitis (GWP) - Wegener's - Mnemonic and Cases

Granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GWP) was formerly known as Wegener's granulomatosis.
Granulomatosis with polyangiitis affects the nose, the sinuses, the ear, the lungs, and the kidneys. Wegener's is a systemic disease that affects many organs, and it's often confused with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
Granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GWP) is positive for cytoplasmic anti-neutrophilic cytoplasmic antibody (c-ANCA).

Wow! I was really struggling to understand this disease, so I watched several videos. This one was the most helpful. It also provides detailed and additional information, which is great for exams. Thank you, an excellent piece of content! Love from TURKEY ❤

I was diagnosed with Wegener's granulomatosis 10 years ago and I have been in remission until a few months ago. Now I'm in the middle of a severe relapse. Currently trying methylprednasolone Bactrum and Leflunomide. I'm not sure which makes me feel worse, the disease or the meds. Hopefully one of you medical people out there will develope a cure for this nasty disease. I know the steroids and immunosuppressive drugs treat the vasculitis, but no one ever seems to offer a drug that helps with feeling sick and weak and in pain. If anything, the treatment exacerbates the discomfort.
Opioid pain meds are a Godsend for those of us in severe pain, or they used to be, but now they are socially unacceptable because some people abuse them. Being forced to live in pain because some junkies can't control themselves is ridiculous. The medical community needs to find a way to address pain without treating normal patients like we're all potential addicts.

G-d bless you… the answer is right up my alley!!!

Would you be able to review a case of wegener's with gastrointestinal and CNS/brain involvement, possibly on YouTube or your website? This was very very interesting. I have wegener's vasculitis (GPA) with involvement that seems to be less common.
