[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It seems like there is a big range. I have one friend who was diagnosed in college, currently walks with a cane and parks in the handicap parking. I have another friend diagnosed at 40 and it’s well controlled with meds. She leads a pretty normal life though she lets me pick up the heavy cast iron cookware.[/quote] That’s common. It’s because of duration. Your friend who has had disease for 20 years is in worse shape than your friend who has had it for five. I ran marathons until about year 15. I’m now at year 23, and have had joint replacements and a fusion, and sometimes use my placard.[/quote]
