    I'm a 56yr old female living with a rare chronic illness called Sensory Ataxia, Neuronopathy, Auto immune Liver fibros. It started just before I turned 50 up until then I was a fit healthy person running my own business.

    Hi @Rue_d

    I have got a “Brain AVM” (Devil)

    Which keeps coming back even though I have had many “Brain Opps”

    Oh I'm so sorry, I actually know what this is as my grandson has one in his popliteal fossa (muscle) behind the knee. He suffers from a lot of pain.

    Hi @Rue_d

    To date it’s the damage from the surgery’s that have caused the much damage.

    My Brain is full of “all sorts”

    Glue & Radiation to name a few!!!!

    I’m always on a “high” due to the “glue”

    The “Radiation” turns me “green” at “nighttime”

    “Only joking”
