Hi Tracey and welcome.

You have found the right place for your condition. If you have any questions, don't be afraid to ask.

When were you diagnosed and what symptoms do you have that lead them to a GPA diagnosis?

Welcome, Tracey. You've come to the right place. The forum has been indispensable for me since I was diagnosed in April 2011. i would be very much in the dark without it. You will feel much less alone here. Everyone's story is a little different and we'd like to hear as much as possible about yours, as much as you would like to share on an ongoing basis. Don't worry about long posts, or if you feel the need to rant or vent, we are here for that, too. Also, use the Search function to find past posts about specific things you are interested in. Best of luck, and keep us posted!
