    About Me

    I was recently diagnosed with asthma. I hate it because I'm usually really active and asthma has really pretty much cut that down to almost no activity compared with what I had been able to do in the past, even with really bad allergies that I've had since as far back as I can remember. I also have PKU . I was diagnosed when I was 8 and never put on the diet until about 4 years ago... I know all the research says it's better for me to be on this"insanely restrictive " diet but truthfully I have serious doubts because in some ways I believe it has done me more harm than good

    Interests

    sports, reading, computers, learning different languages. I'm really shy and prefer to do "alone things" more often than more social activities.

    • Open Degenerative Disc Disease

      I'm joining this group to help my roommate who has/ has had degerative disc disease. She's constantly in pain and nothing seems to help . she's overweight and her doctor won't do surgery until she's lost at least 60 lbs. I just need to get some ideas and advise on what we both can do to make this more bareable for us both.
