no shyt... you've got marfan's?
i don't have it or anything, but i learned all about it last trimester in radiology
Yep. My mom is on disability because of it. I pretty much hurt all the time, but I'm no pill-popper. I only take ibuprofen if I really need it, like last night. I don't know much about it, but I can only assume that some of my pains are a direct result of it, like my knee hurting real bad when going to the theater.

Actually what sucks is even finding out you have it. I had always dismissed the pain before, but now I think about it all the time so I notice it more. The wierd thing about Marfan's is that the symptons are things that would normally seem good, which is why many people don't even realize they have it. What's worse is that my doctor's have never mentioned it, and my physical therapist thought it sounded familiar but didn't ever think of it when he tested my flexibility and said I was ultra-flexible(even showed me off to others). I didn't even know about it till my mom came home saying she saw a specialist that diagnosed her, and being an inherited genetic disorder her doc said I probably have it too, given my injuries and symptons.
