Hi everyone...

I had HSP 17yrs ago.....(I am 60yrs old now)

I still get swollen legs, rash comes, and goes, and I have ongoing kidney infections, showing blood, etc in urine.........

Regularly up throughout the night, every night about 5 times to urinate...

Since contracting HSP I also started having problems with my heart running too fast (130BPM resting), and now take medication to slow heart down..

My immune system is completely shot, and I catch everything going, and suffer from exhaustion constantly, without barely doing anything !!!

Before HSP I was fit, healthy, never saw a doctor for anything !!!
