As a patient or a carer of someone living with an autoinflammatory disease, you know only too well the dread that comes over you when needing to visit the emergency room or seeing a new doctor. The reality is that the thought of having to go through all the story, have someone believe you, and then get the care you need, fills us all with dread.
ANZFAID have created a solution to try and bridge the gap between patients and the medical community. ANZFAID Patient Cards have been created to provide patients with a tangible tool to hand to the emergency room doctors or any medical professional, to explain your condition, your medications and give them information on your disease and how to move forward.
