Do you think that's really bad?!? It probably is, but I'm lucky and don't really have any symptoms, and at the same time I don't really do anything to take care of my MVP because I haven't been to see a doctor about it in about 6-7 years!! That's CRAZY!! I didn't really think about it until I was told by another doctor that I'm suppose to have yearly checkups....oops! Didn't know that - thanks MOM! lol :-)
Let me know what you think, and if you know any good doctors in ATL, GA. Also, I don't have medical insurance right now, that's another reason I haven't been, but that only covers the last 1 1/2...

I was 15 when I was diagnosed, too! Its not that scary because its not deadly. There are so many simple treatments to MVP. You dont have to suffer through any of the side effects if you chose not to. As far as I know, theres not a cure, but its not something thats going to kill you unless you just absolutely polute your body! :-)
Dont be scared! :-)
