I was diagnosed with a PID several years ago, aged 30, after suffering from autoimmune conditions my whole life and then stubborn chest and ear infections in my late twenties. In 2017 I started home subcutaneous immunoglobulin therapy and found the resources from PID UK, the organisation prior to Immunodeficiency UK, a huge help, as well as the personal stories and advice from other patients. As the patient representative for London I want to help provide this support to other patients, particularly those with rarer forms of PID or with other complicating conditions. I live in London and have worked full time in IT for the past 10 years. At weekends I enjoy eating out, watching films and spending time with my nieces and nephews.
