Hi everyone

I'm trying to understand how people with difficult-to-diagnose autoimmune health issues actually end up finding doctors who really make a difference.

For those who eventually found a specialist you genuinely trusted:

• How did it happen?
• Was it through your GP, another doctor, patient groups, online research, family/friends, or something else?
• What turned out to be useful?
• What wasted your time or sent you down the wrong path?

I’m especially interested in what actually happened, not what should happen in theory.

Even if the process was messy, I’d really value hearing your story.

Thanks.
