About the Blogger

My name is Nina Magnuson. I was diagnosed with Oseteomyelitis in 2002. I had a surgery to remove it and got home the day before Christmas. I was on a medicine that was injected into my blood stream through a pick line. A tube that is inserted into a vein and leads to the heart where it pumps the injected substance throughout the body. This disease has come back two other times now and I continue to battle it. Things are looking up for me now, and I made this blog to help support others affected. I have a great family and many friends that have supported me. A big help has been my father and mother who understand me. I would like to inform others about this disease because I feel that it would be beneficial to the people affected to feel welcome. To read more about my encounter with chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis,(CRMO) please read the section titled, my story. But this disease does not make my life, i play soccer, love my family, and am now a sophmore in highschool.
