Hi everyone!
So to make a long story short i am 22 years old and have been sick 9 years. I just recently was diagnosed with late stage lyme disease among co infections so will be beginning treatment for that. I just got my 23andme results back and i'm feeling really overwhelmed. Honestly i expected some gene mutations but i guess i didn't expect this much...I've literally been going through an almost "grieving" process the past few days over this. It doesn't help that my knowledge of going about treatment is limited in this so i was wondering if anyone could offer me some insight.
I was also wondering if there are any sites/literature anywhere that talks about the prevalence of the different kinds of mutations or the combinations (ex: i am compound hetero for MTHFR) how common is this?
Anyway as i said any kind of help would be really appreciated as far as where i should go from here...I'm 22 but feel like my body is slowly shutting down on me and it's just really scary.
