My cardiologist knows this about me. She's actually told me straight up that if I don't stop catastrophizing every symp

Hi everyone, I was recently diagnosed with FSGS and wanted to introduce myself to the community. I don’t have any specific questions, but I’d love to hear any advice or positive insights from others who’ve been through this.
