ICD-11 Codes define our global illnesses. These are important to understand global data and specialties involved. For the past 2 years, I spent over 200 hours collecting and submitting research, proposals and investigating the field of endometriosis to solve the inefficiencies of the descriptions. They are currently still in need of an update (and to have the correct medical credentials to defining them).

The objective of the Health Literacy Community is to build expertise and improve the policy development process by gathering current and emerging information from all WHO regions and organizing it in one place.

Endometriosis is a NCD - a noncommunicable disease that effects over 176 million women. People with illness are being part of the conversation over policy and action that influences their lives. I was fortunate to represent women with endometriosis with my story and health information in Geneva to define the agenda for updates to policy for the 2018 United Nations - High Level meeting. It was amazing working with this amazing bunch.

After being diagnosed in 2001 and then UN-diagnosed in 2015, I did my own research and discovered not only do I have endometriosis but also thoracic endometriosis.
