One of the most important things you can do when you find out you have a new disease is to educate yourself about the disease. Patients that understand their disease are much more likely to remain persistent with their treatments and will do far better over the long run. Using reputable healthcare resources for education is important so you are learning what is the current best practice for your particular disease. Using websites like cdc.gov or mayoclinic.org can be a great place to find reputable disease education.
