Unfiltered Webinar: Mental Health in PIDs
On October 3rd, AAPIDP held an “Unfiltered Webinar: Mental Health in PIDs (Primary Immunodeficiency Disorders).” We were joined by Dr. Valeria Greif and Florencia Ugo (Master’s degree holder). It was a space for discussion and for finding tools to better support those dealing with these chronic conditions; living with a PID does not only impact physical health—it can also give rise to fears, uncertainty, anxiety, fatigue, and emotional challenges for both patients and their families. We reached more than 200 views.
