Losing Sight but Finding Strength: My Five Year Journey Living With Alpha-Gal Syndrome
For the last five years, Alpha-Gal Syndrome has shaped nearly every part of my life. I was only 19 and six months pregnant with my daughter when I first heard the words “alpha-gal.” At the time, doctors told me it was just an allergy to mammal meat.
