Hi, everyone,

As you are all aware this is scary time for many people. I'm having a bit of difficulty getting a proper answer from the various sources including the the NHS regarding whether I am in a vulnerable group.

I have a diagnosis of Connective Tissue Disease and have been told by my Rheumatologist that it is Autoimmune. I'm taking Hydroxychloroquine. So am I in the high risk groups? 🤨

You'd think that being a nurse I would know! 🤣 But, I don't have a definite answer, please advise you wonderful people.

Thank you 😊 and keep safe
