[quote=Anonymous]Genetics are important, but you are not helpless in managing the progression of your own diseases. All of the things you cited can absolutely be managed. I say this as someone that inherited a specific disease that will end in circulatory failure or kidney failure. Much is outside of my control, but there are things I can do to help slow my progression or make me a better candidate for transplantation, and I’m doing them. I have family members with the BCRA gene, and they aren’t waiting around to die of breast cancer. They are getting surgeries and improving their chances of long term survival. You’re too young to sit around waiting to die. Get some shoe inserts, ditch the high sodium high crap autism comfort foods, get an CPAP, and get moving. [/quote]
