Reply to "Primary sclerosing cholangitis"

All I know is about my friends experiences and she has overlapping auto-immune diseases and syndromes.  Her's was undetected for years and she is 60.  She is managing all of her problems now and has everything is currently stable.  Jeff is a young man and it's good that it was diagnosed.  I didn't mean to make you worry more.  It is a nasty disease but so is UC and I'm still here since my diagnosis around 18 years ago.  I had it a good decade before then. We are all different.  Mine crept up on me and there are other's that get the diagnosis and are hit so hard they need the surgery right away.  My j-pouch is 4.5 years old and I know what the problem is which is a lot better than in February when I was clueless.  I'm going to be okay but upset that my thyroid has gone bonkers too.  I'm finally under the care of an endocrinologist but need to stay on the last dose for 3 months until she can order more testing.  It's an autoimmune disease too.  I think most of us with IBD eventually get another autoimmune disease.  I forget where I heard that from so don't take it as gospel! 

 

Jeff is young and has you helping him.  Please take your own advice   I had a sick son for 15 years and he is doing terrific now. Caused me my first migraines, but that comes with the territory.  I'm glad you all had fun at the Magic Kingdom. I love that place!
