That is how most of us feel in the beginning, but many have found that it isn't necessarily the case, with proper treatment, meds & supplements - by docs who are in the know & on top of the problem. If it weren't for that I'd be a bed-ridden basket-case. But now I work 6 days a week and can participate in most of the things I used to. Some life style changes are necessary, but you don't automatically have to be reduced to the status of an invalid.
