Deffo, as I dont get any pain then.

I could live in Spain easily , like the spanish people as well.

i'm not quite lame but i was for 6 weeks. dropped metatarsal head in the left foot, mis-diagnosed by 3 gps and 4 different chiropodists.

Thyroid problem, so I hate the cold too. Stupid winter

Chondromalacia patella. Knee problems, it's not serious and apparently it's common in women. Chuffing hurts sometimes though.

I went to physio for it, he reckoned it was down to bad posture. Probably why it's still not better.

Do u exercise to reduce the symptoms you described?

Acne

I read this as "it hurts to chuff" I thought you were referring to trumps!

Possible Addison's disease (no idea though, honestly, as my GP is useless and won't even do any relevant blood tests for it, let alone refer me to a doctor that actually knows what they're talking about, but I've had some of the symptoms for years and now I have most of them, and they're all getting worse to the point of being debilitating).

I get chilblains on my hands mine started about 2 weeks ago which is poor circulation too with red itchy sometimes swollen bits , probably not as bad as raynauds although some of the pictures of toes with chilblains i`ve seen on the net are pretty horrible.

Hiatus hernia
Migraines
Lower backache
Had gall bladder removed
Tonsils removed
Recurring mouth ulcers


Other than that, I'm a picture of health.

[cymruambyth26]

I had really bad man flu once......thought I was dying.

[яemus]

Meniere's Disease, always worse in the winter for some reason?

[benny79]

I used to suffer with psoriasis really badly lost 10 years of my life to it

[wlien]

I have Multiple Sclerosis (although I'm in remission at the moment)

[piesJoy]

sleep apnoea (I use a machine to regulate my breathing at night/and to ensure I sleep properly (not to mention *stay awake* the following day!)).

water in my legs (i have no idea what the proper name is for it, or why I have it (even though I've seen a doctor), possibly contributed to by my weight, but they swell up somewhat). I'm hoping exercise and diet will sort it out in good time.
