Rani, I'm truly sorry to hear you are experiencing this. There aren't a lot of ACC folks here but I could message you contact info for some. There are some resources, forums and Facebook groups with a lot of ACC survivors also if you are interested.

There's a walk coming up in September near Chicago, I believe, if you want any info in that.

Of course, we want you here, too. smile
