ABOUT StopCAIDNow:



StopCAIDnow is focused on providing tools to better educate healthcare providers and the community on Autoinflammatory diseases. There is a need for an understanding of these diseases so proper diagnosis can be made, and treatment can be started. This will help alleviate the inflammation process, and the pain that comes with it. The need for proper diagnosis is urgent for the prognosis of these diseases. If left untreated damage to the tissues, organs and vision (for some) will not only be irreversible, but devastating.
