Hi Rose,

Sorry for your troubles. Yes I too have that condition, I've had it for just over 3 years now. I'm in the UK, and I got diagnosed at aged 32.

From the sounds of it, I've been a lot luckier than you. After presenting with massive proteinuria, I was prescribed prednisolone, which worked so well, the condition went into remission, until May this year, when I had a slight relapse. This time around I was prescribed Ramipril, and the condition has now spontaneously gone into remission again.

Best of luck with everything.
