    Very interesting data, Marta! Thank you so much for doing the survey. The question about our lifestyle pre-Wegs made me tear up-- so many people said how strong and healthy they were, all the things they could do. There's a lot of loss on that page.

    It was totally a pleasure, and I'm blown away at how many responses we have. Totally blown away!

    I too had a little cry when going through some of the answers Sangye. From feeling like you've totally got it together to that 'what the **** is going on with my life' feeling.

    The commonalities are quite interesting and I think this will also come out in the book which makes me think that it should almost be something that is a manditory read in med school - ENT school for sure as so many of us ended up there first (right after our GP's). Oh, to dream the impossible dream.

    ENT docs don't seem to come out of this too well. We have a high percentage with sinus issues and almost as many seeing ENT specialists, but only a dozen went on to be diagnosed by them.

    My ENT doctor had recommended a biopsy to check out why I frequently had bloody scabs in my nose, but then I got jerked around by other doctors who couldn't agree on who should do it so I ended up in hospital before i could get it done. I wonder if it would have shown anything.

    My diagnosis was confirmed by lab work and kidney biopsy since I had kidney involvement.
