Diagnosed at 5 yrs old. Had spinal menengitis when I was 2 months old and was in a coma and had a blood transfusion done which left a star shaped scar on my ankle that I've had my whole life. Been on dilantin since age 5 and I'm 38 now.

Or you can message me on WhatsApp (Phone number can only be seen by the question and answer creators), I created a Warriors support group which help everyone with their conditions. We learn alot 1 sister from a hospital on there as well as my sister whom worked in a hospital for a very long time and she got a huge amount of knowledge of anything
