I have three stomach problems all are very long words that I can't even remember nor spell, but some how my mother always does.
PCOS of course
very bad eyesight, weird to explain, but I can only see out of one eye at a time.....
a bad right ankle from being a stupid kid and breaking it and a bad left knee from countless bicycle accidents (i'm an accident waiting to happen.) and a bad right wrist. All three joints have arthuritis in them and hurt and pop like crazy espcecially when it's really cold
Depression and moodswings that drive my father absolutly insane
over weight
headaches,
did have asthma as a child, but I grew out of it
I'm prone to get Kidney and UT infections often

I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW HOW MANY OF YOU WOMEN ARE NOT EXTEAMLY OVER WEIGHT AND IF IF HAVE EVER HAD AN EATING DISORDER. THANKS CANT WAIT TO SEE
Hi All. I've beens surfing this site for awhile and I've finally found the guts to add something. Here is my laundry list...
PCOS (my periods go on forever!)
Epilepsy (showed up two weeks after my never
ending period began. Dr. doesn't
seem to believe me that there is a
link)
High Blood pressure
Hyperinsulinemia
Hyperplastic Endometrium
Interstitial Cystitis
Bruxism (I've worn a mouth gard at night
for the past 8 years)
Chronic sinus and ear infections
Back pain
Insomnia
COLD feet
Tingling in arms and hands
Allergic to EVERYTHING
No sex drive
Boy do I have fun (NOT) when I go to the Dr. and they say "Do you have any other medical problems????" I am sick of people saying "You are so young, you shouldn't be having all these problems!" Well duh!
How weird is this that we all have similar illnesses. I never thought that one problem like IR could throw this many thing out of wack. Here we go:
IR - Not taking any thing right now
Cysts -
Inverted uterus - Not able to carry a child if I get pregnant.
Migranes w/vision and hearingloss - Maxalt (WONDERFUL)
Panic attacks - Was taking Paxil (quit)
Asthma - Albuteral
IBS - not diagnosed Doc said take Imodium???
Skin Tags
Skin Cancer - 3 surgeries since May of 1999
Allergies -To all Penicllan Based drugs, and Adhesive tape(Weird)
Nearsighted
Swimmers ear - just recently started 4 months ago.
Arthritis
To much Hair in all the wrong places - Bleach, NAir or Razor.
Obesity
TMJ - wear mouth guard sometimes to keep from breaking any more teeth (broke two).
Acne - Oil of Olay Beauty cloths (those washcloths work wonderful)
PMS - boyfriend leaves me for three days prior.
Lil - No Libido - I still try and never say no. No matter how i feel.
Can't think of any thing else right now. Oh yeah loss of consentration and memory. To many to name or go into. this is just too weird. You think they'ed come up with a cure of better treatment with all of our problems.
