Diagnoses Index

Although this site is geared toward autoimmune diseases, I have included all of my diagnoses. Most of them are autoimmune or come as a result of treatment for autoimmune diseases. Cataracts and Osteoporosis are examples of diseases or disorders caused by autoimmune treatment. Neither of which are autoimmune in nature but developed, in my case, from taking steroids... a major stay of treatment for many autoimmune diseases.

Each diagnosis below will link you to a page where I will give you a personal glimpse into the diagnosis, along with the etiology, symptoms, and plan of care, as well as how I see it affect my life.

The information gathered comes from experience, medical providers, nursing school, nursing experience, reading, and the Internet. So, it is not meant to be authoritative.

I will add links for any and all diagnoses that may be added in the future as well.

You are listening to Memories from the musical Cats, written by
Andrew Lloyd Webber and T.S. Eliot. I felt this song was a perfect selection
for this site because of the affiliation I feel with Grizabella. Although for her,
it was age and not health issues that changed her, neither of us are who we
were before, on the outside, and it can affect how we feel on the inside.
