Hello @johnbishop, I hadn't heard of Shining Through CIDP but went there and was pleasantly surprised to find such a helpful website. The first person stories are very good for me to hear as they give me hope. There are also resources for places and people that can diagnose and treat me. This is what I'm looking for as rare diseases/disorders have fewer dollars to gain so are generally overlooked by the medical establishment.
The CICP discussions on Connect to learn will also be helpful as there are a lot of varied experiences, opinions and information concerning CIDP listed. I only became aware of Mayo Clinic Connect yesterday and am impressed with this resource and people like you and @celia16 that really try to assist others with life altering problems.
Could you help me understand how to hyperlink relevant people and websites?
I'm going to recontact GBS/CIDP Foundation for the specific neurologists to see at UCM as I found and lost them. I was going to set up an appt. yesterday with one of them.
Thank you do much for your help @johnbishop.

Hi @toolman53, If you want to make sure a specific member on Connect sees your comment, you just need to use their member name like I did here to respond to your message. For websites you just have to copy and paste the page address (URL) and it will link to the website. New members are prevented from sharing links for a short period of time after joining Connect to keep Connect free of spammers. More how to types of information on using Connect is available in the Help Center here - https://connect.mayoclinic.org/help-center/.

Best wishes on your learning journey. I hope you can keep us updated. Feel free to tag me if you have any questions you think I may be able to answer.
