Oh I understand so well!
After soldiering on through some difficult diagnosis, when I got my diagnosis of MD, it truly was "the straw that broke the camels back"; just seemed like the step too far!
Then I spoke to my friends,all in our 70s, and they all had it too.
They just shrugged, "so?"
Normalized the whole experience.
Then I could get back to putting my energies into my big ticket diagnosises.
Glad you are getting encouragement from others ... that's what Connect is all about.
Have a great day!

Yes....sometimes it just seems like the Universe is trying to break me. I have always been able to overcome and get on with it and I hope I can this time too. I appreciate your words of positivity.
