Hi
I have been diagnosed recently.
Have been suffering terrible chest & back pain
together with severe head pains.
Has anyone developed complications attributable
to this condition?
I have been told by my doctor that there is no
cure and treatment is by way of painkillers.
Has anyone else been told this?
I have found that the disease is viral caused by
Coxsachie B.
That it is named after an island in the Baltic.
That sufferers should stay away from pregnant women.
I would appreciate any further info.
All the best to my fellow sufferers.
Steve
