Hi
When I was diagnosed, I had never heard of the disease. I was about 42 at the time, and I don't think my doctor did a good job explaining it. I had to do a lot of googling, many times over, to start to understand what each part meant. I don't know much about biology, and TTP sounded complicated. These googled articles helped more than the doctors in my opinion. But I looked it up on my own time, so I had time to digest the information and not be rushed out because it was the end of my appointment.
