You are right ofcourse; your fears are not at all unfounded. On the contrary. The odds are against you, for now. But it would be nice if more of the time you have now would be free of fear and worry. That's what I meant to say: if we manage to push the fears and anxiety back, we have better quality of life. It's not easy, though.

I have severe, quite debilitating sometimes, food allergies. I can obsess about something I may or may not have ingested accidentally. Some of my reactions are delayed up to 24 hrs. I sometimes spend those hours fearing the headache, migraine, stomach-ache, that never happens.

Hope you will be dancing with NED until a cure is found. Wouldn't that be wonderful and strange at the same time?

Love

Jacqueline
