Until there's an official change, there are more than a few medical "professionals" that I would like to tell it's temporary called "You owe me an apology disease". Or if I'm really having a bad day, "you don't know your butt from breakfast disease".

It makes sense, really. Because you'll have X, and a lowered immune system, and EBV/HHV-6/CMV, and....

lol!! That's hilarious and so true anne.

There are some great ideas here and one thing I think we all agree on... we don't want it pronounced "zand". Also we must refer to this as a disease, always, because it is.
