I was wondering if anyone knows what PKU or Phenylketonuria is??
I have PKU and I know that my parents were not aware of what it was when I was born. I have started a blog to make people aware of how it affects me everyday.http://thedailystruggleofpku.blogspot.com/
Re: PKU
I cannot access your blog from where I am - but how old are you? If you don't mind my asking - it's now a routine test at birth.
PKU is the inability to synthesize phenylketones -- I believe it's an amino acid. (soft drink bottles usually have "PKU free" stamped on them)
My son of 5 months was diagnosed with Classic PKU at two weeks of age. I would love to talk to you more about PKU. It's so hard to find other people who even know anything about it, let alone are diagnosed with it.
