Marfan Syndrome

by ronpaul4prez, Dec 19, 2007 11:15AM
hello, 22/f

for about 5 years I've been researching my symptoms, looking for answers, etc. I felt like a nut

I had asked to be tested for Lupus, as well as Lyme disease. RA factor was only a 7, Sed. Rate. normal, all lyme tests for neg.

my main complaints are pains, espeically joint pain, headaches, etc.

I went to a doctor thinking I had Fibro or arthritis... turns out I have Marfan Syndrome

I also found out that I'm vitamin D deficent. I was wondering if that has anything to do with Marfan Syndrome?

also are there any exercises I can do at home? I'm supposed to be going to PT 3 times a week, but I had to quit my job because of pain. I have joint hypermobility and patello-femoral syndrome

thanks any help
