Thankfully, my kidneys were only slightly and briefly affected, though my good doctor is still vigilant.<BR/>I can be reached at acp.design@yahoo.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10712003.post-45464850294124159532009-04-02T19:52:00.000-04:002009-04-02T19:52:00.000-04:00I developed HSP about one month after my 58th birthday.<BR/>I know I am a rare case, but I suggest you never stress too much the age criteria when diagnosing.<BR/>A better criteria would be to check for raised blood pressure levels.<BR/>HSP often causes elevated BP. My BP is normally "perfect" I am told, but was high when I visited the hospital emergency room at the conditions onset.<BR/>I am disappointed BP was omitted from the above list of criteria. <BR/>Not ashamed to be different, I am apparently the perpetual adolescent I have always claimed to be.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10712003.post-45747795091645270532008-12-20T08:45:00.000-05:002008-12-20T08:45:00.000-05:00Interesting case ..<BR/>and really a great blog ..<BR/><BR/><BR/>Thanks a lot.<BR/><BR/>Mohammad, KSA.Mohammadnoreply@blogger.com
