Hello,

Without an exam, I can only give general information. Vasculitis is several diseases; all of them are quite dangerous and also treatable.

They are treated with immunosuppressants that require close monitoring. And, food, exercise, good thoughts are not relevant.

It cuts off circulation to areas and those areas die off. It causes a painful loss of organs so, it needs treatment.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
