@psumm33 Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect! I like your description of yourself as “a medical unicorn.” Have the doctors said how long you will be under treatment? Be sure to read some of the previous postings just so you’ll get an idea of how MCC works.

@becsbuddy Thanks! I'll have to be treated for the rest of my life. Years ago, most doctors referred to me as a medical mystery because I never present or respond in a "normal" way. On one of my hospital visits, a nurse said that I was really a "unicorn"...a beautiful & rare creature that most doctors go through their whole career & never get to see it. I loved that description so I adopted it. Lol
