Just diagnosed 6 weeks ago & I pretty much blurted to everyone I know. Well, that's exaggerating, but I told 4 people at work, 4 at church, a support group I'm in, and my whole family. And my hairdresser--but that was imperative, as I was losing function in my left hand & needed a carefree style.
Now I'm regretting being so open; although it hasn't come back to bite me yet, I feel like people ...
