Re: Recently diagnosed @ 33 and scared
Hello! I was also 33 when I was diagnosed...and my boys were 2 and 4 (almost 5). I'm a little over two years out from my diagnosis now. This website has been a tremendous encouragement and place for support. It IS very scary to be diagnosed, especially when you're young and have small children. I still worry and wonder if my doctors have "missed" something and go down that dark road of "what ifs" every time I have a cough or a headache. BUT...time really does help and I find comfort in everyday life. I just wanted to chime in and offer my support. You can message me anytime if you'd like!
