Forward a few years started losing weight, bleeding when going bathroom, sick tired all the time. I quit working because I was to sick. Went to hospital was admitted with dehydration, no pottatisum, got put on remicade, also a medication called purienthol, prednisone, got stable. went to hospital somewhere in mid 2003 they thought I had Takayasu, but I never got the name of disease, because I didn’t go back to a appointment. then when I did couldn’t find my chart because it was old n I never been to that doctor before. in 2017 my cardiologist sent me to a vascular cardiologist, at Charleston vascular center in West Virginia. Doctor nanjadappa found my disease. Stenosis pretty much all over, no pulse in left arm, bp in left arm could not get. The doctor did anjoplastia, my carotid n subclavian we’re severely blocked. I had at least 3 TIA’s in the past. Now I’m on methoxtrate n prednisone, seeing a rheumatologist doctor, also my vascular doctor. Praying
