Hi everyone. I would love to find more active support groups. Does anyone know of any? I was just diagnosed July 5th 2022. I have had 2 rounds of Iv Rituxin and still on prednisone. I have lost alot of my hearing before I was diagnosed. Doctors dont think I will recover it back. Has anyone else lost their hearing? Also does the mucus from the lungs EVER STOP? Its so gross!

    Hi Natalie,

    Sorry to hear about your hearing loss. Have you found any other forums that help with advice?

    How did your doctor confirm diagnosis? I have very high PR3 but my ANCA changes. Having lung and throat issues.

    Thanks and hope you are feeling better-

    Christy
