    A 58-year-old woman presented with shortness of breath, chest pain, abdominal pain, and other symptoms. She had a prior diagnosis of systemic sclerosis and was recently vaccinated against COVID-19 and influenza. Initial work-up and follow-up led doctors to diagnose the patient with eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis, an uncommon complication of her preexisting autoimmune condition, which they treated with corticosteroids.
