WARNING: Lengthy post! ♡
Hello! ♡
Because today is World Hepatitis Day, this post would be fitting. I want to raise awareness for this misunderstood condition ^^
I have a disease called autoimmune hepatitis, but I'll just shorten it to AIH ^^ What is AIH, even? Basically, my immune system suddenly freaked out one summer day in 2014 and began attacking my poor, innocent liver. Why? Nobody knows. But, if untreated, the immune system will just continue attacking my defenseless liver, leading to scarring, damage and even liver failure and... death! *gasp*
But, it's okay, as long as I take my lovely mixture of pills every day. Anyway. There is no cure, but there is treatment. One day I might be able to go into remission, when I can stop taking my pills, but the bad news is that it can come back >< It's a pretty rare disease, but if anyone out here has it too, please feel free to talk to me! ♡ I'd love to have more people who I can talk to and understand what it's like.
