Welcome Carla! As I sent you thru a PM, I have moved your posts to their own thread. This will get you the most responses. Stick with us and we will help get you thru this. There is tons of info here so I encourage you to read and learn about your disease. A knowledgeable patient is able to advocate much better. We will help you with info and support. Sorry but for your own safety I have also removed your email address from your post.

Best wishes!
