Emily |
Emily has just been diagnosed with JDM 2/21/07. She started with a rash around
her eyes (at the first pediatrician appointment) that eventually now covers her
arms, hands, legs, and face. This is all new to us and obviously new to the
doctors in our area. We had visited 2 pediatricians, 2 dermatologists, and gone
through three weeks of allergy testing. The second dermatologist suspected a
connective tissue disease and sent her for more specific blood work. Referring
us to a neurologist, she is now on prednisone and we are trying to get in to a
pediatric neurologist, earliest appointment available is March 28th. The curejm
website has been the place to get answers for us so far. Thank you for all that
you have done
