Hi Stung,

Sorry to hear about that. FWIW, my grandmother (in her 90's now) was dx 20 years ago with leukemia and she is still strong and kicking. I have 2 girlfriends dx 15-20 years ago one with ms and one with lupus and both are really healthy today and don't even take meds. People can manage with those types of illnesses. They all live VERY LOW stress lives now.

Please keep us informed about how you are doing.

Oh, and one other thing, keep a list of all meds you are on including supplements and vitamins on your computer or smartphone. Print a dated copy off before all doctors appts, so you can hand it to them and they always have your latest med/supl/vit list with a date. (I worked in healthcare for a couple years and those lists were super handy for the nurses and doctors).

Hugs
