Default BeriBeri

Hi JC! We don't know yet if we have genetic BeriBeri. I was diagnosed three weeks ago with BeriBeri and my daughter was diagnosed today. The doctors are trying to figure out how to get us a prescription for the shots and appear to be a bit befuddled by the whole thing.

As of now, my mother is highly suspect as is my son. If they also have the disorder I think we may be looking at a genetic factor.

One thing that complicates the situation is that we're all gluten sensitive. Right now the assumption is that the trauma to the gut made it difficult for us to absorb B-1.

I suppose it'll all work out in the wash. Another month or two and we should have some answers.
