| Have you looked into Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome? I was diagnosed with the Hypermobility type six years ago and had it confirmed by a Geneticist a year later. Some of the symptoms can be similar to Marfan Syndrome so you may want to look into it. |

| Seeing dust like that is because of dark-field effect: Perhaps you have had the experience of sitting on a sunny day in a dark room with the shades drawn or pulled down. A beam of sunshine came into the room through a very small hole in the drape or windowshade. As you watched from the side you coul... |

| I don't think it's a good idea to post a girl's picture on a website for strangers to see without her permission. She probably wouldn't like that. I was just thinking the same thing. If she somehow found out (Yes, I know it's unlikely but it is possible) it could ruin any chance you have with her. |

| Like others I'm a mix of young and old. I always felt more mature than my peers (and still am in some areas :lol:) but they seemed to pass me by in social development during the teen years. Now I see people that I grew up with living on their own, working full time and getting married while I still ... |

| also many times I was unable to hold food down right after I had eaten, this often co-incided with me having a migrane. When you say it coincided with a migraine do you mean that you had the headache when you threw up? My father and I are both migraine sufferers since the age of 8 or 9 (thanks Dad!... |

I immediately, and almost involuntarily reply "I'm fine, how are you?".... This is sometimes a detriment, because friends will o... |

| Rogue, the N component is a measure of how much control one has (over their natural inclinations) so NAE is really just a "better" adjusted AE. That would explain why I saw myself in both descriptions then :lol: I had assumed there was a link between the two but wasn't sure about the N. Thanks for ... |
