Rare, fascinating...: Prion diseases are rare, fascinating. Haven't heard of a cure, so a diagnosis of brain prion disease in one's 20's would be bad. Because the symptoms overlap with many diseases and disorders that are much more common than prion diseases (unless a person has contact with a proven source of prions), one's doctor will be evaluating for signs of the more common diseases, which are likely treatable.
