I have a ridiculous Hitchhiker's Thumb, as in I can easily bend my thumb back to a 90 degree angle. It's rather scary actually.
I can do this, too. I get it from my dad. What I don't get from him is the ability to bend my wrist so far forward that my palm is flat against my arm. I can wave my hands around and make weird slappy noises.
Ooooh, "Hitchiher's Thumb"? It's a genetic disorder (well, more like trait)? I always thought I got that from gaming. :p

My left thumb goes back 90°, my right one goes even further. It's a squick for people.

The only genetic disorder I have (that I know of) is a bad case of restless leg syndrome... and that's not really all that rare at all.
That's not really a disorder, it's just that some people get bored if they sit still for too long.

I was born with some valve disease and after 16 years of doctor fuck ups, I'm left with Cardiovascular Myopathy and four (all of them) leaking valves. Surprisingly I feel quite fine and its strange when the doctors tell me my heart is 3 times the size and about as effective as a 90 year olds.

Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome

Just means I have an extra lil electrical connection in heart and my heart beat is sorta random. Also sometimes we just drop dead... lol o well.

P.S. It has nothing to do with Parkinson's Disease.

Yeah sadly I have "too-awesome-syndrome", its quite a severe case and sadly their is a cure.

But in all seriousness I don't think I do, well not to my knowledge, but I don't trust my judgement of things disease wise as i'm quite the hypochondriac.

All I can say is: not yet, I don't! But my granny died of Alzheimer's, so if I'm really unlucky when I'm old...

I have Neurofibromatosis. So far I've only had one tumor that had to be removed and it was benign. The major sign I have of NF is the Café au lait spots.

Not sure, but some people think I have autism. Not sure though. What I'm totally sure are personalities disorders and deficiencies.

I'm Ginger, if that counts.

However, the doctor has ruled me an eighty percent chance of developing Psoriasis by age forty. Crud.

I'm actually one of those extremely rare half man-half woman thing.




My dad is a man, and my mom is a woman.
