Do you have a severe genetic disease or rare genetic trait? If so, you can add a description for your public profile. Familial dominant neuromuscular disorder - not yet identified - neurologist is about to ship me off to UMD and from there, if no answers, to NIH (which is where previous neuro tried to send me immediately). Myotonia + myalgia from early childhood, worsened by tiredness, cold, hunger (particularly lack of refined carbs/sugar), and ESPECIALLY inactivity. Made better by moderate exercise, but with a rebound effect after too much exercise. Also improved with heat and massage (but not stretching). Very low lactate threshold. Hyperreflexia in me, but according to mother, grandmother (with same condition) had complete areflexia from her teens. Mother and grandmother both have/had pronounced peripheral neuropathy, and my last workup found some, too. I've had parasthesia, fasculation, and neuralgia (the last I believe from nerve impingement due to chronic myotonia), but these largely resolved with large amounts of moderate exercise. MRI was clean. Action tremor from teenage years at least (others noticed and commented first). No impact on intelligence with age (mother scored in 99.99th %ile on the GRE at 50, as I did at 22, back when it was actually hard). No cardiac or smooth muscle abnormalities at all. A small mutation of my SCN1A gene was found of unknown importance. Other than that, a channelopathy screening came up clean. This neuro isn't sold on the channelopathy angle and suspects something more dastardly, but he saw me when my conditions were at their worst--which, as I said above, I suspect are largely caused by irritation or impingement on the nerves by the badly behaved voluntary muscles, NOT because of some kind of nerve disorder, CNS or otherwise. Another doctor's pet theory is a mitochondrial metabolic disorder, which I find pretty unlikely given its dominant inheritance.

1.1 — Blood Type O -
1.2 — Height 5'6"
1.3 — Weight 130
1.4 — Comments Currently losing weight to get back to 121lbs.
2.1 — Left Eye (Photograph Number) (full-size image: https://goo.gl/XQ2Voh) 14
2.2 — Right Eye (Photograph Number) (full-size image: https://goo.gl/XQ2Voh) 14
2.3 — Left Eye Color - Text Description Hazel, brown in center, main part green, bluer ring around outside--a little less brown than photo
2.4 — Right Eye Color - Text Description Same
2.5 —Comments My eye color was the same from toddlerhood until I had my first kid,looking like #16. After my first pregnancy, it turned dramatically greener (age 23)--all the way to 11, if it were more green and less blue. Then it slid back and stopped very close to #14. My mother's eyes went from hazel to true blue by the age of 50, so I guess I shouldn't be too surprised, but I'd thought that eye color didn't change. (My brother's eyes were always blue--both my parents are hazel.)
3.1 — What is your natural hair color currently, when without artificial color or dye? brown
3.2 — Hair Color - Text Description ash brown
3.3 — Comments Born black, fell out, turned red-blonde then straight blonde by the time I was 1 years old. Then it gradually darkened with age. By 18, I straddled the blonde/brown divide, and when I was 30, it was still light brown, but now at 35, it's medium brown and still getting darker! Zero gray. Not a single hair. But one grandmother was completely gray at 40, while my paternal grandmother never got gray hair and died in her 90s.
4.1 — Any final thoughts? I'm 99% on the O- but it might possibly be O+. If it is, I'll correct this.
1.4 — Handedness Left
