As #InvisibleDisabilitiesWeek ends, we reflect on the implications that autoimmune conditions with invisible symptoms can have on patients’ journeys.
Due to the invisible nature of these symptoms, women are often dismissed and struggle to be seen, heard, diagnosed and treated
Invisible symptoms can have a major impact on autoimmune patients, resulting in:
⏳ Longer Diagnosis Times
❌ Misdiagnosis
❤️ Negative Health Outcomes
@FemmeBright is committed to improving the health outcomes for the 40M women with autoimmune conditions in the U.S. and Canada.
For #InvisibleDisabilitiesWeek, Lindsay Ireland’s story on the Chatter That Matters podcast with @TonyChapman seems fitting.
It's a perfect example of a patient with multiple autoimmune conditions who turned feeling invisible to resilient through her lifelong health journey.
To hear Lindsay’s full story about how she perseveres, despite the invisible nature of her autoimmune conditions, listen to the podcast ➡️
