Open Question: I think I may have Marfan’s syndrome?

May 22nd, 2010 | by admin | Open Question: I think I may have Marfan’s syndrome?
My grandfather was one of 12, 7 of his sisters had it… so it’s in my gene pool. I’ve never been tested for it or anything but my doctor mentions it once in a while. I’m 13, I’m 5′11” I weigh 150 pounds. I have random stretch marks even though I’m very athletic and not overweight/fat, I’ve been tested for asthma but I do not have it even though I can’t breathe very well when exercising (and I am in shape, I run a lot). I have very long toes and fingers, too. I’ve always been tall. My knees and hips hurt all the time, I have one flat foot and minor scoliosis (nothing that is too severe or needs to be treated… just a curved spine that causes me to be sore at points), plus I have a weird undiagnosed “heart murmur” in which I can feel at random times.
But yeah… do I sound like I have it?
I’m so scared that I do.
I know it’s not a big deal or anything… But I don’t want to NOT be able to have boyfriends and get married and have children because no one wants to marry a genetic freak. I want to be normal! I want to be able to have children without difficulty and I want men to find me attractive.. not a genetic mishap! What are the treatments? :’(
