My name is Sanjay Magudia and live in St.Albans U.K. I am 73 years old and was diagnosed with Polymyositis in 2011. After a medical consultation it was established that, a cause for the Polymyositis is not known. An Immunosuppressant and steroids have been prescribed in order to slow down the wastage of my muscles and a loss of strength in my legs. A result of these medication brings in its own side effects with it, like Osteoporosis, Cataract, Kidney problems, Diabetes etc. It is a progressive disease and has made me a lot weaker in last 10 years. One suffers in silence and along with you, the family members silently suffer with you too. Please help spread awareness about this rare disease to your friends, family and health care communities.
All participants who raise $100 or more will receive a FUN FIT FLEX T-shirt.
