I got a diagnosis today after trying to figure out what’s wrong with me for twenty years. My grandmother died at a relatively young age of lupus complications and she had to end her whole career at 36 because she was so sick. I’m 27, and I am terrified I’m going to end up like her. Her quality of life was absolutely awful for the entire time I knew her. I don’t want that for myself.
Not medically trained or experiencing any illnesses, but keep this in mind:
In just a few years, the medical world made huge steps in treating a lot of things using RNA techniques.
Don’t compare a situation 10 or 20 years ago with the possibilities today.
