As someone who suffers from a classified “orphan” disease (Wegener’s) — something so rare that less than 6,000 people in the US are diagnosed with it each year — I seldom see much news in the progression of treatment for it.
So you can imagine how stoked I was when I saw this: After 40 Years, NIH-Supported Researchers Identify Possible New Treatment for Severe Vasculitis
Stoked to say that I may have a small part in this research as I’ve kept my symptoms under control with anti-TNF meds for a few years now (knocking on wood as writing...).
Cheers and happy Friday to this news. More here: NIH.gov
