In this week's episode, I talk about Hyper IgE Syndrome, also known as Job Syndrome. It's a rare primary immunodeficiency disorder that causes skin abscesses, lung infections, and not losing your baby teeth in time! I talk to Dusty, who has had all of these, but didn't get a proper diagnosis until much later in life after have her lungs collapse. Listen to this episode to see what triggers her Hyper IgE Syndrome, how she didn't get all of her baby teeth out until much later in life, and how she landed in the hospital with collapsed lungs.
