Cogan's and my health.

Was noodling around, found out today that Cogan's syndrome -- my corneal dystrophy -- also affects hearing.  That's likely why I've had hearing loss since '90.  Cogan's is a rare autoimmune disorder; bet you that the ENTs I saw never thought of it. 

I didn't know that diagnosis before I saw either of 'em -- one in 2014, one last year. 

The bad news is that the hearing loss is not fixable.  I'm in the unlucky 15% who has both ocular and hearing troubles.

Apparently I wanted a full suite of problems when I chose genetically, eh? :p
