Ummm...not sure you'll want me to answer this :lol3:

Some of my current issues are fibromyalgia, coeliac, IBS, reynauds, muscle spasms that pull my spine and/or pelvis out of line...

I think I'd better stop there. I could go on, but it may start to look like I'm a hypochondriac ;) Needless to say, I'm a bit of a walking train wreck :lol:

Luckily not too much.  

Migraines for many years was probably the worst of it but they have subsided tremendously in recent years (one good thing about menopause, for me).  

Other than that, knee issues from being a klutz and too many surgeries to repair the damage.  Darn arthritis!

Hypothyroidism. I've had Thyroid Cancer and since my Thyroid has been removed (So far, no signs of Cancer).

Now that I don't have a thyroid, I am constantly adjusting my medication, battling weight gain, tired all the time.. ugh. that'll be with me for the rest of my life.

I have a few, in less than 10 years I've battled cancer twice, I am diabetic but not on insulin, have very weak legs and at times I have a hard time breathing.  Other than that I am in perfect health

I never had any problems until I had my daughter. I got preeclampsia when pregnant with her and delivered over 10 weeks early. Ever since then, I've had high blood pressure (except while pregnant last year with my son). I also had my gallbladder out 2 years ago.

Well, I guess our entire lives we have had too many to name so I will talk about my latest and to me the worst. The end of this past February I feel and broke my ankle very badly.  As soon as it happened I went to a dr that set it (God that hurt) and put a half cast on it, then I had to go in the hospital for surgery. I was there 2 weeks and ended up getting 2 plates and 6 screws. After that I was on crutches and a walker, I could not even stand to take a shower, it was so bad.

Now I just started walking again, but my foot hurts from not being used and after walking a bit it's painful, the Dr said after 4 months that will go away. I have the ugliest scars and still walk weird and have to get it all out in a year.. It's been so hard not being able to do things for yourself, the pain and all. Just glad I'm getting back to myself. I really feel for people who cannot walk, bc really you cannot depend on others.

Pseudotumor Cerebri - When I was younger, Thank goodness i've had no relapses, although I still see flashes of light from time to time.


Hypothyroidism - Actually, I had severe graves disease (T4 and T3 were both over 100!), I've had 2 rounds of radiation, so i'm hypo now.  

Obesity - 94lbs down, 50 to go! 
 

Edit: Forgot Gallstones, Just had my gallbladder removed, which is why I forgot about it. All pain free now lol.

Migranes when I was a 12 year old kid - Took treatment for it for about 2 years and now I get about 1-2 a year and very mild ones at that, I just take a certain pill and within a couple of hours it's gone. A big difference from 1-4 a week in the worst cases lasting 8-16 hours! 

Developing Asthma - I've always loved animals, so I ended up with over 15 rabbits (all named, of course) but their fur and waste deteriorated my bronchia and I was developing asthma and pneumonia. Had to give away all the bunnies. After about 10 years or so, mom is still wary of me having kitties because of the fur. I currently have residual damage from all the coughing so I'm very sensitive to smoke, dust and dry weather.
