to all,
as i embrace another day of 6 weeks of CHA, i find myself grateful of a painfree night. through bottles of prednesone, imitrex and so on, i again except the fact i am afflicted with this disease. but, the hope a simple cure or fact glimmered as I watched the ABC program. hail to the media. you say, FTM, well, it does have its ways of getting information to the world, good or bad.
as they say, we need to find the remidy that helps us cope without endangering our body or mind. it's a difficult balance, yet one that is necessary. some of the key facts:
1. find a compassionate/knowledgable medical physician/institute. diamond clinic/chicago, new histimine research? interesting
2. try everything until you find something that makes that balance
3. knowledge is life; seek it in any form, be it science, arts or simply read the bible and form your own opinion (did this latlely, it gave me some peace)
4. don't let the "devil" take you down (easy to say, huh?) fight the MF until you kill "it" off!
thanks for letting me be apart of this family and board, i've learned a lot.
