Got diagnosed with PCT in 1995 and am very chemically sensitive. My life was ruined working in a 'tight' building!

Vampire fact is really fun! Feel I will definitely remember the disease better now you mentioned that :)

[@karenharris722]

This is a ridiculous analogy! I have Porphyria and I'm no vampire!!

I have been diagnosed with pct but my iron runs low at times.

[@sadimohammadarad1784]

Why there is no iron overload syndrome in Acute Intermittent Porphyria ? But in Porohyria Cutanea Tarda ?

[@nakabuyebrendah1941]

in PCT, porphyrins are as well deposited in the liver causing liver damage. as its well known that iron is stored in the liver, a dysfunctional liver can lead to disruption in iron metabolism leading to iron retention which exacerbates iron accumulation. i came across your comment and i felt a need to answer, even though its been a year now and probably you have got a response already😁😁
