I've had Strep Throat once, and it was not fun. At all. My throat was so sore, I couldn't even swallow without feeling pain...
Worst/Most irritating medical condition you've ever had?

If there's a God, he hates my testicals.
I've had shingles on my groin (when I told my parents they thought it was herpes) which was the most uncomfortable week I ever had.
Then I was with a girl on her couch, and we were doing things but I wasn't exactly getting any action. Because I had been laying in a weird position doing sexual things with a girl, but still had constricting pants on, things weren't exactly flowing right.
I experienced a mild form of testicular torsion. It was agonizing. It made me question reality.
Luckily my Mom was a nurse (seriously, my parents hear way more about my downstairs than I am comfortable with), told me to take a hot bath and stay still for a while. It managed to kind of work itself out.
I haven't worn jeans since.

Tonsilloliths, breath smelled nasty from 6th-9th grade, though it went away in 10th grade. My friends had all gotten into the habit of handing me a piece of mint gum instead of saying "hi".
Insomnia, 3 hours of sleep every day since 6th grade. I'd like to think it gives me more time to do useful tasks or schoolwork, but I'm usually too exhausted to do anything but sit around and try to sleep.
Panic attacks + paranoia + horrible memory, Can't remember pretty much a thing before i was 8, and forget big and small things weekly, around 6th grade started freaking out a lot and think people are out to get me, then wake up the next day and wonder what brought that on. Not so much a named condition(?) but still annoying.
Finally, Allergies. Allergic to pollen, animals, milk, grass and mildew/mold. Not to a deadly extent, but enough to me annoying/slightly painful. Started in 6th grade of course.
Hahaa, 6th grade sucked.

, disappeared around 6th grade thankfully. I'd always burn them with almost boiling water, it usually helped better then cortisone Myasthenia gravis or cancer (more specifically, the side effects that come with chemotherapy). It's a toss-up.
Myasthenia gravis (commonly called "MG") is an auto-immune nerve disorder that weakens a group of muscles in the body. I had it in my left ocular muscles (eye muscles), resulting in double vision. I lived with it for about a decade. Then I got cancer.
Cancer is, well, cancer. 'Nuff said. I received six rounds of chemo for non-Hodgekins Lymphoma. That was three years ago, and I STILL have side effects from the chemo. Every person reacts differently to chemo, so doctors can't really predict how long these side effects will last.

Irritable bowel syndrome. It's really annoying, sometimes my gut is okay with a particular kind of food one day, but then the next time I eat the same food, DIARRHEA! And then I gotta spend the next 4 days eating practically nothing but grains and drink peppermint tea to get my intestinal track to calm down because EVERYTHING I'll eat after that point will give me the runs. Makes traveling rather harrowing for me.
I think my most life-threatening was pnemonia for a week when I was in the 4th grade.
Most annoying. Last year I'd occasionally lose feeling in my pinky finger. It felt like it fell asleep, but it didn't. I have no idea what caused it. It just stopped happening.
Just a couple days ago my arm wouldnt stop twitching all day.
EDIT:
I also had a thing with anerexia.
I also, probably, have an anxiety disorder, if not some form of manic depression. I'm not diagnosist and I don't want to be.
Other then that perfectly health; I've never had to stay over night in a hospital.

I have asperger's too (it's a mild case)! i know how you feel, most of the other aspergers syndrome people in my class are fucktards. there's this one girl who is extremely bitchy and above all else, really fucking ugly. seriously, she looks more like an animal than a person! she's not civil or sanitary, either. when she's angry, she starts growling and hissing like a wild animal, and she plays with her spit and picks her nose and pops her pimples right in front of everyone, right out in the open. there's also this one guy who complains about everything, and his reaction to any help from me is to shriek at me " NOOOOO!!!! YOU CAN'T HELP ME!!!! THAT'S CHEATING!!!!!!!!!" stupid whiner. the only non- retard asperger's guy in my class is my best friend peter. he doesn't say much, but he's normal.Kingpopadopalus said:
Well, there was one time when a small part of my nose started twitching. I didn't even know there were muscles there. It was hella annoying.
Oh, and once I couldn't move upper parts of my body for a week after damaging something in my neck during workout. The worst part was when my body was locking itself in a weird position - neck to the right , hands in a zombie-like fashion except for the bent elbow - because I didn't know how to do anything or even stand still without feeling like someone is snapping my neck while jamming a dozen knives in my arms.

Wow. How am I supposed to do that?

For me... Mitral Valve Prolapse, yay for dropping like a rock during heavy exercise! Yay for your heart-rate deciding it doesn't like this "fast" idea when you are exercising... Wooh... Bloody hell. AT least it is nothing dangerous.
Every year I get some pretty bad strep throat usually it's so bad I can't even talk or eat. This year was the worst though because usually I only have the really sore throat but this time I got a wonderfully massive fever so I got to hallucinate while not being able to talk.
I've never had to deal with anything that bad. My dad gets Cluster Headaches though. If he misses the tell for when they're going to start or doesn't manage to grab his oxygen tank for some reason, it's unbearable to watch. Never seen anyone in as much pain as he goes through because of those.
Does Aspergers count? If yes then that, although I have to admit I'm not sure if my life would be better or worst without it. If no, then having my wisdom teeth pulled. The operation didn't cause any pain thanks to pin killers but afterwords my mouth hurt (a lot).
I have no idea what the hell I had. The symptoms were fever, sore throat, coughing, watery eye and it lasted for about a week. It ended quickly though, after I vomited...something. It had the consistency of scrambled eggs and the same general color. I have no idea what the hell it was but that was the most interesting vomit I've ever...vomited.
