I have issues breathing for months now that had been treated as asthma. After running some bloodwork last week it appears I have a rare autoimmune disorder called Mixed Connective Tissue disorder. I now need to see a rheumatologist and was wondering if anyone has any recs. Any T&P would be appreciated!
I have a friend that's seen Jonathan Waltuck at Emory for years and I think really likes him. https://www.emoryhealthcare.org/physicians/w/waltuck-jonathan.html (Somewhat related...I know his wife and she's wonderful.) I'll definitely keep you in my T&Ps while you deal with this scary time. (((Hugs)))

My sister and her sister in law both have RA. They see Dr. Waltuck as well. Sis was just there today and was raving about how great he is. So sorry you are having to deal with this. I will be praying for you! ((HUGS))
