The Journey of the "defected" Erin - 11/01/2015

My name is Erin Harcourt, I’m 20 years old and live in Manchester, United Kingdom.

I am going to be writing a blog based on my journey. I am currently in the process of being diagnosed with a “congenital myopathy”, which is a very broad term for any muscle disorder present from birth. There are hundreds of types, however the type my Neurologist thinks I may have is Pompe Disease. Pompe Disease is an inherited disorder caused by the buildup of a complex sugar called glycogen in the body’s cells. The accumulation of glycogen in certain organs and tissues, especially muscles, impairs their ability to function normally. Gobbledegook right?! Cut a long story short, there are around 5,000 - 10,000 people in the entire world that have been diagnosed, and I could possibly be one of them. 

I have been kept in the dark for over two decades about my condition, and now that I potentially have a name for it, my outlook is still pretty dim. Considering Manchester alone has a population of half a million, 5,000 people in the whole world are going to be pretty hard to track down, so I could confide in someone about this - which is why I’m writing this blog. I’m hoping, if there is someone out there, who in the future may possibly be diagnosed with Pompe Disease or a disorder alike, they can look on my blog, and know what to expect. I am going to treat this like a diary, and hope someone can use it when they are going through diagnosis or treatment, and not have to fear everything like I am at the moment.

I will cover more about my life and the disease in my next posts, as I don’t think an introduction should bore you to tears, or persuade you to do something a little more interesting, like google cats doing various yoga positions. Welcome to the Journey of the “defected” Erin Harcourt.
