Sorry to hear the lack of support. Especially as it is a rare condition, I understand.
Can check the American Behçet's Disease Association (ABDA) out online and whether any virtual support groups, and maybe CreakyJoints has some information too.
Thank you for sharing! One of my goals is to help the general medical audience better recognize/ identify rheumatic conditions— including #Behcets!

🆕 Approach to Rheum Labs! 🧪
With the current #rheumatology workforce shortage, better education is needed to increase yield of new patient referrals from referring clinicians:
1️⃣ Joint Pain: when should one refer to #Rheum?
2️⃣ ANA: when should an #ANA be checked?
#MedSky #RheumSky #PositiveANA
I think this one looks clearer… the text is darker on this one!

🆕 #Obinutuzumab (Obi) in Lupus Nephritis: the REGENCY Trial

Yes good Q whether earlier targeting in the B-cell pathway with inebilizumab will make a significant difference with broader B cell depletion!
Wonder if anyone else on #RheumSky has thoughts!
