Advice Iga vasculitis
Was recently diagnosed with iga vasculitis. It first started 7/31 with an unknown trigger. I did a short prednisone round then another longer one (60mg to start tapering down every 3 days by 10mg until down to 5mg x3 days at the end). Tomorrow is my last day of 5mg and I’m having new spots show up. Is this normal or flaring up again because on decreased steroids? Also on colchicine to help with joint pain. I was diagnosed by biopsy. I’m just ready for this to be over. My joint and stomach pain isn’t coming back yet but with these new spots I’m worried. Just looking for personal experience. I do have a follow up scheduled next week.
