I was a 9/11 responder and have myositis, asthma, small nerve fiber damage, sleep Apnea, lung nodule and Carpal tunnel in both hands. It has been going on for 5 years or so and I am finally getting some diagnoses. from research I have found that many other 9/11 responders are suffering from Autoimmune disease and myositis. However I have not been able to contact or find these people. I have recently registered with the WTC Health program. I did not realize that many of my medical conditions are a direct result of WTC exposure. I am sure there are many more out there. I have recently gone out on SS Disability do to these conditions. I would like to hear from anyone who is having similar problems and how they are being treated.
