    It’s nice yet sad to know I’m not the only one with these ailments

    I too have heart problems on top of asthma. There were a few years there where my meds canceled each other out, so if i wanted to exercise i had to choose whether i wanted working lungs or a working heart. I practically slept though my junior year of highschool and still get sick super easily cause my body is just overworked. I got very lucky in that my family has a history so my doctor immediately knew what was going on. I don’t tell people often cause it feels so strange to just be like “yeah my body does not work correctly but you would never know”. Honestly you are such an inspiration to me Raina, and everyone on this thread.

    It's a relief to hear that it's not just me with these medical issues. I am dealing with Stage 4 cancer (chronic but no longer terminal) on top of a bunch of hereditary autoimmune issues. I don't get a whole lot of fun out of life because my immune system hates me.

    I can't even swim any more since I seem to be allergic to the standard pool chemical cocktail. I am a permanently beached mermaid.
