Hey, my name is Brittni. I'm eighteen and I was diagnosed with something called Stiff Persons Syndrome last Janurary. Another name for it is Stiff Man's disease.Most people get it in their forties I guess. What makes me even more rare is how young I am and the fact that I have a variant of it. Most people get it in their forties I guess.

I've been getting IVIG transfusions for the last nine months and am waiting anyday now to be admitted for my tenth treatment. I guess I'm just looking for people who can understand how draining this is for me. No one in my family seems to...
