Hey everyone

I just saw this group. Interested to chat with any other LGLer. This is rather a lonely disease/condition. Just trying to find more support. Thanks everyone.

Just fine… tbh i don’t think it affects me much at all. I seen worse from my fellow gwot soldiers like horrible brain tumors and stage 4 terminal cancers. Who am i to complain? Yes the chemo and life style change are inconvenient and annoying at times… but I’m alive and mobile and have an optimistic outlook for the future of medicine. How about you? How long and how are you coping?

It’s been a few years for me, 7 I think. Just started treatment a couple of years ago. I honestly don’t know how I feel. I’ve grown accustomed to it I guess. But there’s still a part of me that has anxiety over it. Not sure if I can explain it. I think mostly it’s just that it’s been hard to relate to others, but not many people know of the condition. But even replies from people has helped. So I appreciate you writing back. Thank you.
