What an incredible read.
This article somewhat reminds me of my struggles with LPR: the sudden onset, the myriad of symptoms all pointing in different directions, the intense, daily stress that keeps you from thinking about anything else (is it cancer? am I getting worse?), the dreams of death, the endless and fruitless search for answers, the lack of a cure and the community of sufferers who all seem to have their own rituals and fixes, the way the disease seems to work in cycles, the seemingly half-physical, half-psychological nature of it all.
Laura’s experience is way, way worse that mine, but it’s still quite scary that the body can just break for no good reason.
