Title: A Few Questions
Post by Silver_Dolphins on Dec 21^st, 2002, 12:48pm

WE all know that we are suffering. I was wondering does the US Government know the extent to which we are suffering?

Is CH classified as a syndrom, condition, disease?

Is CH listed in the Americans with disabilities act?

What sort of protections against discriminatioin can we be protected against, ie job loss?

If we have no protections, how do we obtain them?

It's bad enough we have to fight a battle with the Beast, but I fear we might have to battle capitol hill also.

Is there a lawyer in the house?

Hi Barry

In response to your questions, unfortunately in the Uk the answer to most of them is no....

It is hard enough getting to make the Doctors understand and acknowledge this dreadful condition, but be aware IM on the case.... !!!! ...;)

Wishing you PFDAN's
