Michael Klim Illness And CIDP Diagnosis
Michael Klim, an Australian Olympic swimmer, has now come out in public, revealing his health concerns and struggles with the ray of hope of spreading knowledge about the illness to the public worldwide and being concerned about the symptoms similar to the disease.
Through his blog, he revealed that about two years ago, he was diagnosed with an autoimmune disorder also known as chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP).
CIDP is a neurological disorder that causes progressive weakness and impaired sensory function in the arms and legs, and Klim posted in his blog that he had similar kinds of symptoms that would impact his legs and feet.
The swimmer made sure that the way he neglected his health and was not even concerned about the symptoms he was facing happened to no one with the awareness he was raising.
At the initial stage of his illness, he just assumed that it was just a random cramp in his joints, but as the symptoms were coming his way, he had to suffer as his health was going down. But it seemed to be possible for him with his girlfriend’s support.
During his recovery, he had to go through numerous operations, such as an ankle fusion operation, back operation, IVIG (intravenous Immunoglobulin) treatments to reduce the effects of the inflammatory condition, steroid treatments, and plasma replacement therapy to get back to his athletic form.
