My pains

Oh yeah..


I just realized that I may not have mentioned the disease that I have and have grown up with.

It's called (as far as I know) Multiple Hereditary Ostosis. It's basically additional bone growth development. My extra bones started to develop when I was young 9 or 10 or so. I've been told that they usually begin to show when one hits puberty.

I'm 40 years old now and my bones have pretty much grown symetrically except when I take some heavy damage to my body. The bones don't cause me pain until recently and I've been told thats unusual. My sister has this as well as my mother and they have had almost 10 operations between them. My worry is how it will affect my son.

I been told by a geneticist that there is a 50/50 chance my son will have it. I'll have to wait about 10 years or so to find out.
