    This Etravirine sounds very positive. I look forward to hearing more positive results.

    I use BCAAs, Tumeric Curcumin, and some times Fish oil capsules. BCAAs are the most important.

    Mine would have to be “Dr. Manhattan” from the DC comic book series “The Watchmen.”
    His origin is terrifying as he was disintegrated in an Intrinsic Field Generator and by
    sheer strength of will he later reconstructs his body, returning with extremely powerful
    abilities. He was given the name Dr. Manhattan by the US Government after the Manhattan Project.

    Thanks Matthew. It was rough seeing my mother die at only 10 years of age. I’m really hoping Stem Cell treatments will become common place and help tons of people afflicted with this disease.

    Hi Matthew. My mother’s family was very big. All of which came from Honduras. Most of them had FA and died from it.
    I have two Uncles who never got the disease. One of which my Uncle Jesse has a large family and none of his children
    never got FA. I have no brothers or sisters and grew up with my three cousins and my Uncle Cisco who raised us together after my mother and her sister died. Of us kids, two of us, my cousin Myrthis & I showed no signs of the disease. But Greg started showing signs as early as 15. We use to laugh at him tripping on the stairs at that age, chalking it up to simple clumsiness, but we truly had no clue it was far more dire than we could comprehend. By his late 20’s, just like my mother, he started really to show all the signs, and soon afterwards passed. 5 years after that, my other cousin Edwin started showing, then soon passed. My cousin Myrthis had three kids and they are all grown up and have shown no symptoms, which i’m so happy for them. Edwin had two kids, one of which is fine, but his sister just started showing symptoms of unequalibrium and is now terrified as she knows nothing of the disease. I was deeply saddened for her, and soon took to the internet to see if there were any new findings or treatments for FA.

    I find this to be a very interesting and powerful post. I have no children due to the fact i’m terrified of ever passing on FA to my child or children. I couldn’t bear to watch my child die the way my mother, her sister, and a few of my uncles did. Just recently, I’ve gotten back with a girlfriend I use to date 20 years ago, and my heart sank when she brought up the subject of children, of how she remembered my fear and that she was totally ok of never having children.
    I couldn’t have loved her more in that moment. I do praise those with FA that want and do have children and who do not have my fear of this disease, I really do.

    Excellent! I feel you’ll really like it. I dropped protein bars and powders as I live a very Ketogenic lifestyle and consume a good amount of protein. Good luck!

    Hello Egan. BCAA’s stands for “Branch-Chain Amino Acids.” I love their effects as someone who loves to workout.
