I am 54. I know you remember when HIV/AIDS happened. This is similar to that in that no one seems to know what to do, however we do not face the stigma that accompanied that due to people's sexual orientation and it being inaccurately labeled "a gay disease." When I think back I am disgusted with how people were treated. There is research happening, and like you, I hope that we will get some answers.
I hope so. I woke up this morning as I did yesterday morning...fatigued, poisoned and tinnitus. I have days where I wake up and I feel ok, but most days I wake up feeling like sh*t. I have to tell myself that I will feel better as the day goes on and I have to just keep going. Thankfully, today I do not have to be anywhere. I am grateful for that. I know that things could be much worse and that there are people that have it a lot worse than I do and even lost their life (at least on this planet). Thank you for your reply. Strength in numbers, especially those of us that understand. I also feel the need to explain, but most people either do not know what to say or do not seem like they believe me. I realize that they just do not know how it feels. That is what I value about all of you. Thank you.
