  1. Today is Rare Disease Day.

    I've got two of those. :catjam:

    First is familial hypercholesterolemia. This is not your run--of-the-mill hypercholesterolemia. No. This cannot be just treated with diet and exercise. Even the statins aren't great at treating it. The state of the art is a PCSK9 inhibitor. This, this does wonders.

    Then, there's the PCNS lymphoma. Lymphomas are already considered rare. The PCNS form is even rarer. I'm over 5 years in remission and doing fine.

    May we eradicate all diseases, from the commonest to the rarest.
