I downloaded this app after seeing someone else with my rare disease post about it on Instagram. I have already connected with several people who have my same diagnosis!! I also like how you match on diagnosis and symptoms so if you're searching for a diagnosis, you might be able to find clues as to what's going on through symptoms you match on with other people who have been diagnosed. Hoping this will be a game changer for me 🦓
