W.A.T.C.H.I.N.G was created to provide information and support for anyone suffering from autoimmune conditions. I have Primary Biliary Cirrhosis, PBC-AIH Overlap Syndrome, Lichen Sclerosis, Eczema and Psoriasis. I have a young daughter who has a very good chance of also having PBC and celiac disease. I don't want her to have such a diagnosis without having a good plan of attack. This is my mission, and I hope to help others with the information I gather on my journey.
