โFor anyone new to this: I've been there. For me it was about three years ago. I remember explaining it to every new doctor like it was yesterday. Yesterday I booked a holiday. Bit by bit it comes back. You've got this, even if it doesn't feel like it.โ
โNot that long ago, about a year, that was me. Back then it was flying to a specialist. Some weeks I don't think about it at all. Bit by bit it comes back.โ
โTo whoever needs this: A year and a half ago I was exactly where you are. For me it was a diagnosis code that does not fit the forms. I got a new job in April. It comes back so slowly you don't notice until one day you do. From someone who gets it.โ
โWhen you first hear the word rare, it feels like a door slamming. You'll spend months explaining it to doctors and yourself. Some days you'll faint in the queue at the shop and feel like a spectacle. But you'll also find people who listen. You'll learn to pace yourself. You'll get a caseworker who helps with the bills. It won't be fixed, but it will be managed. And you'll still play guitar badly, and that's something.โ
