How long did it take to get answers?

For many people living with IgG4-related disease, the path to diagnosis is anything but straightforward. Multiple appointments. Multiple specialists. More questions than answers.

In Session 2 of the IgG4ward! EuroJAM educational series, Dr. Emma Culver discusses why diagnosing IgG4-RD can be so challenging and why greater awareness of the disease matters.

If you've ever wondered why the journey can take so long - or if you've lived it yourself - this session is worth watching.

Have you ever met another person living with IgG4-related disease?

During the opening remarks of the inaugural IgG4ward! EuroJAM, attendees were asked that question.

For many, the answer was no.

That powerful moment served as a reminder of why community matters—and why no one should face IgG4-RD alone.

Following welcome remarks from Katharine Provencher and Dr. Emma Culver, Dr. John Stone opens the IgG4ward! EuroJAM educational series with a keynote presentation exploring the history of IgG4-related disease and the discoveries that led to its recognition as a distinct condition.
