Symptoms are diverse and range from mild to severely debilitating or even fatal. It is considered rare but is underdiagnosed due to lack of awareness. Quantitative studies have shown that <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">ISM<\/jats:styled-content> can negatively impact quality of life. No qualitative studies have described everyday life with the disease.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Design<\/jats:title><jats:p>A qualitative interview study taking a phenomenological approach.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>Seven qualitative, semi\u2010structured interviews with adult patients with <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">ISM<\/jats:styled-content>.

(a) The everyday life with a rare disease, unknown to most people. Being perceived as a hypochondriac in the encounter with the health system. The diagnosis makes a difference. Expert knowledge is important. (b) Living with and handling the invisible and visible symptoms. The visible body. (c) Fearing an attack. Feeling safe and vulnerable at the same time.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>Patients with <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">ISM<\/jats:styled-content> are severely affected in their everyday lives, especially in terms of their relationship with family and social network. Symptoms restrict and complicate activities and participation in social contexts, and the fear of an anaphylactic attack is always present. The disease affects patients\u2019 self\u2010perception and sexuality. The rarity of the disease and general low awareness seems to be of great importance in the encounter with the healthcare system, both before and after diagnosis, and there is a need for expert knowledge, support and care.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Relevance for clinical practice<\/jats:title><jats:p>The focus of counselling should not only be on the disease itself, but also on living life with the disease.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/jocn.14676","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,9,19]],"date-time":"2018-09-19T11:36:09Z","timestamp":1537356969000},"page":"1114-1124","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":24,"title":["Everyday life and mastocytosis from a patient perspective\u2014a qualitative study"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"28","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7924-9244","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Britt","family":"Jensen","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Dermatology and Allergy Centre Odense Research Centre for Anaphylaxis (ORCA) Odense University Hospital  Odense Denmark"},{"name":"Mastocytosis Centre Odense University Hospital (MastOUH)  Odense Denmark"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Sigurd","family":"Broesby\u2010Olsen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Dermatology and Allergy Centre Odense Research Centre for Anaphylaxis (ORCA) Odense University Hospital  Odense Denmark"},{"name":"Mastocytosis Centre Odense University Hospital (MastOUH)  Odense Denmark"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Carsten","family":"Bindslev\u2010Jensen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Dermatology and Allergy Centre Odense Research Centre for Anaphylaxis (ORCA) Odense University Hospital  Odense Denmark"},{"name":"Mastocytosis Centre Odense University Hospital (MastOUH)  Odense Denmark"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Dorthe S.","family":"Nielsen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Migrant Health Clinic Odense University Hospital Center of Global Health University of Southern Denmark  Odense Denmark"},{"name":"Health Sciences Research Center University College Lillebaelt  Odense Denmark"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2018,10,15]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_10_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/all.12920"},{"issue":"46","key":"e_1_2_10_3_1","first-page":"Article 1","article-title":"The pathologization of everyday life: Diagnostic discourses and their looping effects","volume":"61","author":"Brinkmann S.","year":"2016","journal-title":"PsycCRITIQUES"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1398-9995.2007.01569.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159\/000315946"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2340\/00015555-2325"},{"issue":"7","key":"e_1_2_10_7_1","first-page":"V10150854","article-title":"[Mastocytosis]","volume":"178","author":"Broesby\u2010Olsen S.","year":"2016","journal-title":"Ugeskrift for Laeger"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/bjh.12916"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_9_1","unstructured":"DNVK.
