When the body's immune system unintentionally attacks healthy cells and tissues, it can lead to autoimmune disorders that harm and compromise the functions of various organs and systems. Many autoimmune disorders are diagnosed, at least in their most advanced stages, despite some being rare and poorly understood. A smaller percentage of people are affected by rare autoimmune diseases, and because they are frequently difficult to diagnose, patients often receive ineffective care for years.
