Nephrotic Syndrome

Dear all,

I have an announcement to make. I have nephrotic syndrome. What is it? Well, its a disease that affects the kidneys and causes protein to be expelled from the body instead of being retained. In contrast, water that should be expelled will be retained in the body causing me to bloat up like a baloon filled with water. So, what does that look like? Imagine me right? All handsome and good looking as I am, and then, imagine me with my eyes puffy, my stomach bloated, unsmiling (not normal innit). That is the effects. If you want me to explain more, I can't. I don't want to get too detailed.

I've been suffering (not much) from the early age of 1 year and 3 months. The only available medication is steroids, prednisilone, which has cause some rather funny effects on my anatomy. For one, I have a rounded profile, I am hairy, shorter than normal. So, if you think that I am a person that has an indefinite passion for food, your not entirely wrong. Its just that most of my, um, rounded physique is not entirely food begotten. I am not trying to get sympathy, just letting you know. Jokes about me is perfectly fine. I am happy to have inherited my families diverse sense of humor...

So for you future doctor's out there, get a remedy quick. You could name it after me.
