As some of you already know, Netflix and The New York Times are currently filming a documentary series about people with undiagnosed medical conditions.  The series is inspired by Dr. Lisa Sanders’ ‘Diagnosis’ column in The New York Times and will air on Netflix in 2019.  The series producers are looking for new cases to follow and are particularly interested in patients who come from minority communities and/or parts of the country that aren’t often seen on television.  If you are undiagnosed or have a personal medical mystery you’d like to share, please write in the first instance to the producers at diagnosissubmissions@gmail.com.  All information will be treated in confidence and be subject to HIPAA guidelines (i.e.) they will need you to sign a HIPAA release before you disclose sensitive medical information.  

A Note from the Production Team:  

Please don’t submit medical emergencies or conditions that require immediate care. Please know that the producers cannot provide medical care or any kind of medical guidance or advice. The goal here is to share individual stories with “the crowd”, to follow your journey as you seek a diagnosis and to potentially make appropriate information available to you. You may share with your health care providers — who will then decide with you which leads make the most sense to follow. If you are under 18, please have your parent or guardian communicate with us.
