I don't know but almost 99.9% sure you'll be fine. I bet there are tons of providers out there with undiagnosed conditions of all sorts who still care for children just fine. You're probably in shock from learning you have it and are scared. You will be fine. Just remember to take good care of yourself(and your FEET) and do as your doctor tells you.
