Brief Answer:
Takaysu Arteritis

Detailed Answer:
Good evening Yasin

Thank you for writing on health care magic

Well, with a disease like takaysu I would not recommend you to go on Homeopathic treatment, as after so much research we have very few medications in Allopathic for the same. I highly doubt the efficacy of homeopathy treatment in this situation. Plus it s always a risky buisness to stop steroids and try other treatment, cause if it progresses it can damage the organs.

Secondly, she needs to be on methotrexate along with steroids to control the disease. The need for surgery arises only when certain organs are at stake due to stenosis or else most of them recover with medications.

I hope the information was useful

do let me know for more queries
