    I think if one isn't a little depressed after learning your diagnosis you must be in denial about the severity of what it can do. That doesn't mean it will always be a down hill road though as things can and usually do get better with treatment and time. There are for most of us ups and downs and it is struggle at times which is why we come here to share and to shore each other up as best we can.

    well stated drz, this is an up and down and somewhat emotional disease...we're better off learning asap that we need to be good riders and survivors, not just trying to 'beat' this...doesn't work from what I've read in here and other places...

    You may have a rare disease but you are certainly not alone. As for being embarrassed about talking about WG, don't be you will probably have to keep reminding people that you are ill - you will get used to people saying "Oh you look too well to be ill".

    If you want to have a good moan about how you feel this is the place to do so. At some time or another most of us feel down and need a good old moan and rant to get it out of our system. I totally know how you feel about "why me?", over 30 years ago I gave up smoking and for years I felt superior and clever that I have protected my lungs then along comes WG and has a chuckle at my expense.

    Hi Nessa, I just wanted to check back in and see how you're doing?? I sure wish I was in Florida today, it was 16 degrees below zero at my house when I woke up this morning and it's suppose to be colder tonight. Bbbrrrrrrrrrr! I hope you're doing ok! Best wishes, Kami
