Hey all, I'm new here. Trying to get an AS dx. I'm pretty sure I have it. I love hockey, it's my one happy thing I have. I would do nothing else but play goalie all day every day if I could. Went back to school and am studying chemistry. I have no friends where I live, all my friends live in other states far away from me. It's really lonely. I think the other students can tell there's something different about me. I don't get asked out on dates either, which really sucks.

Compounding all my possible AS issues, I've dealt with pituitary tumor, Cushing's disease, and now Addison's disease from surgical removal of my adrenal glands. The hormone fluctuations just exacerbates everything.

Just looking for support, maybe a little validation, and some new friends.

Thanks

Thanks for the warm welcome everyone!

It's kind of nice to not be the freak for once. :D Nice to be somewhere I can fit in.
