    My brother was diagnosed with this in May and we lost him last month, but he went thru a number of issues and it caused inflammation in his brain, caused heart issues and also GE issues thst led to his pressure to drop and resfused to come up and we sadly lost him... I find myself still making endless research on this and wonder what the doctors missed😢

    I was diagnosed with asthma, eosinophilic pneumonia and the possibility of Churg Strauss Syndrome 17 years ago. I’ve been on prednisone for 23 years. I’m on Dupixent now, methotrexate, prednisone and inhalers. It has now affected my right eye (hemorrhaging) pain in my head unbearable. My hair hurts when the wind blows it or the shower water hits my head.
    I’m looking into seeing Dr Robert Morse in Port Charlotte, FL, he’s a Natropath Doctor.

      I am 25 and just got diagnosed with EGPA. They are going to put me on a monoclonal anitbody called Nucala. The Doc said if they could get me the therapy right away they wouldn't have had to put me on the Prednisone at all.

      I have EGPA, nothing is working either. I understand her pain, it's a very hard life. Everyday is pain and suffering. So hard as there isn't a real fix. Especially in the later stages where I am. I've been through all types of pills and most recently finished my 6 month chemo therapy treatment. Right now I've taken things into my own hands and research, I can't rely on doctors to take care if me especially if nothing is working. So I'm testing different diets and fasting to see if that works, so far I'm feeling better than before but not by much. I wish you especially your daughter the best.

    I saw my PCP three months ago with peripheral neuropathy in both hands and right foot, headaches, joint and muscle pain. she did a set of labs and we scheduled a f/u visit 3 weeks later. she told me my labs were fine and I asked her if I should f/u with a neurologist bc of the neuropathy and headaches. She said sounds good. I made the first available appt with neuro for November. Now my symptoms are getting worse, I'm also having bladder issues, shortness of breath, swelling in my hands, feet and face as well as numbness in my face and around my ears and teary, itchy eyes.. Recently, when I accessed my online chart, I saw my labs from June and my eosinophils were 566. Should I be evaluated for this syndrome? I called my PCP's office and they can't get me in until the end of October. I am so worried. I don't want further damage to happen while waiting to be evaluated and treated. Should I go to the ER?

      I have this and one of the telltale signs is your nose is extremely damaged! My septum has holes in it, it looks like ground beef, and so much more issues and I was VERY VERY SICK to the point I was slowly dying
      My oxygen was in the mid to high 80’s and no meds were working and all the ones that did slowly were stopping
      It’s very rare so you need to see a specialist to get a diagnoses and mine told me there is a form of asthma that most people have but they may think they have EGPA but in reality they don’t
      Honestly without the treatment I would be dead and in my experience you are so fucking sick you really can’t miss it so if you are worried get a dr but remember you may not have this and actually have a form of asthma that can cause something to show in bloodwork (I don’t know as much about that asthma as I do about EGPA since I stopped looking into it after I learned I don’t have it)
      I’m 22 and I started getting symptoms a few years ago and I have like every single thing on this video and I’ve honestly lived in the hospital and dr offices and I am still very very sick and I’ll never be normal but thankfully with medical advancements the lifespan of people with EGPA is much longer! But before I started the shots used for EGPA I was so so sick that I was actually dying and my drs told me that without the shots (which are $4,000 EACH... thank god in Canada my gov pays for it) I would have been lucky to live to 23 or 24 AT MOST
