Hi all! New to this, here to inspire and be inspired. I was born with portal hypertension, and portal vein thrombosis. I've had my spleen removed, along with appendix. I'm 18 now, and will be followed by Pediatric doctors for a while. I have alot of other health problems as well but I want to connect with others. Willing to answer any questions, and willing to support you :)
