Hi Elsie
Dr John McDougall has two articles relating to people curing themselves of psoriasis and juvenile rheumatoid arthritis which are inspiring. Hopefully that will give you heaps of encouragement.

Psoriasis is considered to be an autoimmune disease. I have some articles at
Multiple Sclerosis and Roy Swank
Rheumatoid Arthritis and Fibrin
Rheumatoid arthritis – an autoimmune condition
I have a web page that lists a number of books that you may find of interest and that are helpful.
Additional Reading
Many of our modern illnesses are a result of our diet. Taking a supplement or medication is often of very little value. Our health is a reflection of all that we eat. One person contacted me after reading my book and going on a whole-food, plant-based diet. She is now cured of her arthritis and type 2 diabetes and is pain free and medication free.
For most people (94-98%) there is no benefit for a gluten-free or wheat-free diet. It can be detrimental going on a wheat free diet unnecessarily. If you search for gluten on my website, you will find some articles.
Perhaps you can find a vegan-support group nearby. If you are on medications then it should be done in conjunction with a doctor. Changes can be so rapid that the medications need to be reduced.
I would love to hear how you get on.
