Your Medical Problems

[Daniel_Rosamilia]

I've got diabetes, and that's pretty much it.

But in any case, high five for those with diabetes!

HIGH FIVE!

Apart from the diabetes though, not much. Random scars that don't heal over, so I have a bunch of markings over my legs...

 

[kelnadine]

Bad eyesight, and an irregular heartbeat, not to mention an always-too-fast heartbeat. I have ADD. The top problem with me, though?

Food allergies. I have more food allergies than anybody else you'll meet. Soy, wheat, corn, peanut, peas, walnuts, hazelnuts, cantaloupe, carrot, celery, coconut, cranberry, ginger, green peppers, string beans, tomatoes, and watermelon...I am allergic to them all. Soy, wheat and corn are the tough ones, because if you check ingredients ever, you'll see that they're all in everything. My life quality went down the toilet when I suddenly developed all of those allergies at once.

 

[Canadamus Prime]

I don't think I can top you, but I've worn glasses since I was 2, I have ADD, Major Depression Disorder, anxiety (as in anxiety attacks), this one doctor said I had minor tourettes syndrome, although I'm not sure how he came up with that one.

 

[Susano]

well THIS is a bit of a pity parade thread. not to mention a chance for people to talk about their self-diagnosed ailments that make them so unique.

Though to be fair I'm not exactly gonna talk about MY problems or such as they're largely private issues not to be shared with people i'm unfamiliar with.

Though I'm glad to see no-one's gone on about the amazing qualities of their high-function autism or asperger's yet, those who draw attention to such things are hopelessly pathetic to say the least.

But isn't that one of the benefits on internet anonymity? That you can say these things and no repercussions will come of it?

 

[Akai Shizuku]

Mild bipolar disorder.

Same here, its been a huge problem in my life.
still have the scars to prove it.

I like it. The ups are fun.

 

[teutonicman]

Wow man that's quite the shitty health hand you were dealt. Anyway the only medical problem is that I am allergic to penicillin(I break out in to rashes and shit).

 

[SmartIdiot]

This may seem like an odd topic, but I'm feeling pretty down on myself.

I'm 4 months from turning 16, and I won't be getting my license for another 6 months, to a year, or even later. Why? Well let's start from the beginning; I've had severe migraines everyday (and that is not stretching the truth), since I can remember. I have recently been diagnosed as gluten and dairy sensitive, I have Restless Leg Syndrome, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, Attention Deficit Disorder, really bad anxiety and stress, and just yesterday I found out that I have Epilepsy. Now, you can't go having a seizure while driving a car or something, and so that is why I won't be getting my license until I'm seizure free fro a while.

So, anything wrong with you? Can you top me (although I am not sure that is something to be proud of)?

Hey man, I can appreciate where you're coming from. A friend of mine is epileptic, he'd been doing well for a while, was taking driving lessons and was on his way to obtaining a full licence, then one day at work he had a seizure. He was ok afterwards but unable to get his full licence for at least another year so needless to say he was pretty gutted about it, as you are. Don't sweat it though, it's off-putting but you'll get there in the end. For what it's worth, running a car burns a big hole in your wallet, this could give you a chance to save some money to give yourself a boost when you do get your licence.

As for me... no conditions to speak of at the moment, though in the past have included insomnia, anxiety, depression and chronic chest infections. The most it's inconvenienced me is having to take time off work.

Touché.

Still, it's the principle of the thing. Tempted to make up entertaining ones instead now though, just to spice things up.

 

[Nimbus]

Considering my lifestyle and diet, I should probably be dead. However, teenage metabolism seems to be keeping me going, and I'm perfectly healthy and reasonably slim to boot. Yay for that.

 

[Aerodyamic]

Am I the only one here who doesn't have something terribly wrong?

Sure looks that way, don't it?

OT: Crap vision, and I was an ice hockey goalie from the age of 5 until I was about 25, and did a stupid amount of damage to both knees, culminating in an arthroscopic surgery on the outer meniscus of the right knee when I was 24. Other than that, I've been an industrial roofer for the last 11+ years, and it's pretty demanding physical labour, so I've strained a bunch of bits, burned myself, cut myself and generally been hard on my body. Haven't fallen off anything, though, which is kind of important, I guess.

Other than that, I've got A.D.H... LOOK! A MOTHERFUCKING SQUIRREL!

*runs off giggling*

 

[Jark212]

ADD and OCD, quite minor though...

 

[cuddly_tomato]

Mild satyriasis, and I am missing a few molars.

My near sight is starting to fail as well, but that is just age related.

 

[DragonsAteMyMarbles]

Lethologica (which, although Jung described it as "debilitating", doesn't amount to much more than forgetting what I'm talking about mid-sentence quite alarmingly often).
I refuse to make the obvious joke here, it just demeans humour as a... er... fuck.

Also joint hypermobility, commonly referred to as "double-jointedness". Useful when playing the piano.

 

[Puzzles]

Bi-polar disorder is the main one, physically I'm a healthy boy. Mentally, I'm a deranged nutter

 

[Shadowfaze]

I have Psychosis, Schizophrenia, and MPS. Also, i have Insomnia.

 

[RanD00M]

None that i can really think of.

 

[Stylish_Robot]

I'm lactose intolerant which I actually told my doctor in April 2008 and it wasn't until November 2009 that a doctor finally decided to test me for it (and strangely, the hospital literally had to read the instructions because they've never done a test before)

my other problem that I haven't figured out yet is my body can't handle anything acid-y (e.g: soft drinks and pop, apple and orange juice) and for some reason my stomach kind of..."gurgles", not in that "I'm hungry rumble" gurgle either.......went from 260 in 2008 to now being 150 or so

 

[XJ-0461]

I've got type 1 Diabetes. Had it for a bit more then 10 years, so I'm kinda used to it by now.

And bad eye-sight, but I think that they may be related.

Woot for a shitty Pancreas!

I've got diabetes, and that's pretty much it.

But in any case, high five for those with diabetes!

May I have one, seeing as I fit the requirements?

diabetes, yeahhhhh, its not so bad

You all get high fives too. HIGH FIVE!

 

[comadorcrack]

This is my problem...

 

[-Orgasmatron-]

1.Eczema on my right hand
2.Weird lump on my left middle finger and 2 on my left index
3.Left middle finger always hurts and can bend in weird ways since I injured it playing football some years ago and got rejected by the NHS to see someone. It's a real pain in the ass now playing gigs with my band because some nights it will really flare up and it'll be immensly painful playing. Again, thank you NHS.

just curious, what instrument do you play?

Guitar.
