We follow the interaction of massive stars with their circumstellar media over their entire lifetimes by combining several numerical models. We use a stellar evolution model for 35 and 60 M⊙ stars (Langer et al. in preparation) as inner boundary conditions for one- and two-dimensional gas dynamical models of the circumstellar medium using ZEUS (Stone & Norman 1992). In this poster, we focus on circumstellar evolution during the Luminous Blue Variable (LBV) and Wolf-Rayet (WR) stages.
