Congratulations and welcome to the club - I made it into my 40s before diagnosis.so it's not uncommon.
What made you go for a diagnosis? How is it affecting you?
You may find it takes a while before you can get your head around it - and there's a lot of life-processing to do.
The good news is you're young enough to make some positive changes for your future.
