It is sad that the only treatment of this rotten disease takes what were otherwise perfectly happy, healthy individuals and makes them sick as a dog. Then sometimes leaves them with permanent side effects like yours. Life is just not fair.
I hope you enjoyed your birthday and may you have many more.
Take care,
Eileen
