All you say is so true, @anotherfinemass. The one frustrating thing for all of us with rare or orphan disorders is the lack of research. Drug companies are less likely to spend money developing treatments for rare disorders that affect only a small percentage of people, because it is not that profitable for them. The frustrations for these disorders are too long to describe. It seems you have a good handle on what you need to do and who you need to find. I certainly wish you well.

Will you be going to Mayo for a consult?

@hopeful33250 - Well they say money won't buy happiness, but it will pay the salaries of a large research staff to study the problem. 🙂

As for coming to Mayo, that would be ideal, but given that I am several states away, there are many moving parts and I would have to be more organized than I am this minute. At this stage, I'm mostly just digesting the realities and trying to sort out my priorities. And as it turns out, that's a fairly large order to fill.
