Hi! I have had it for over 25 years but only diagnosed for about 10 years. My best suggestions are to find a good Doctor and a good support group. Read all you can about it. There are some excellent books out now. Knowledge is power and we need to share that power. But the important thing is not to "give up". You can give in but not give up. Once in a while we all have a good cry but we also need to realize that life must go on no matter how we feel. I always say I'm a type A personality with a type B body and the body is winning the war. Humor really helps. I have however had to stop working as a CPA or as a business consultant but I am doing 'stuff' that I enjoy. I do have to take my time.
