00:00But today, you don't have to have that cocktail,

00:02but you kind of have the same balanced

00:05pharmaceutical approach to this disease.

00:10I'll close out by saying, it's high time that we recognize

00:14that there's this subgroup of people who are somewhat rare,

00:18but they are there.

00:20And if they're not treated correctly,

00:22the complications get out of control, life gets short,

00:26overdoses occur, it's a terrible situation.

00:28They need to be identified and need to be treated.

00:32And lastly, anybody who says this is a hopeless condition

00:35or shouldn't be treated just doesn't understand it.

00:38So I'm calling for diagnosis, recognition, treatment,

00:42and above all, not to cast out these people

00:46because they just got another disease,

00:48and frankly, isn't any harder to treat

00:50than a lot of others that we treat in medicine every day.

00:53So I'm delighted to have a first shot

00:55at educating people about this,

00:57but I've got a lot more to say,

00:59so I look forward to joining you again.

01:00Good evening.
