Is the treatment of vasculitis requires frequent blood tests?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Often: Systemic vasculitis is often severe and life-threatening. It requires aggressive therapy with medications that themselves can have significant side effects. Both the disease and the meds used to treat it require frequent monitoring with blood tests and other types of tests.
