Location: ABINGDON, MD USA

My Bio

I am a 28 year old female that was diagnosed in with fractures, 3 herniated buldging discs pressing hard on my spinal cord to the point of near paralization and spinal stenosis. I just went to the ER because I had apin at the level of my bra line on my back thinking i just had a bad sinus infection in my lungs onl to find out I had all of these conditions. I had further testing done through an Endocronoligist and found out I have Osteopenia caused from Celiacs Diease. I had major surgery on my back this August and having more in the future. My back can sometimes be debilitaating and I cant do things normal adults my age can do......However, i try to stay as positive as I can. I did lose a total of 67 pounds when starting the celiac diet! I did have a set back just yesterday. I fell over a power cord and caused two new fractures in my backbone. I can''t wait for the day when all the surgeries and pain is gone! :o)
