Default Css

Hi Sybbie, and thank you for your reply to my question. You are correct CSS is an umbrella term for many nerve related conditions, and from what I was told, the reason these conditions manifest themselves is due to CSS being a hyperactive, hypersensitive central nervous condition. I have read that it is a genetic condition that sometimes lies dormant until something causes it to be active. No one in my family has any of my conditions, so I am hoping it is not genetic for me, I would hate for my two daughters to get even one of my conditions. I am so sorry to hear that you have chemical sensitivity, along with migraines, IBS and GERD. Those are all difficult conditions which most individuals can't cope with even one. I would love to discuss with you how you deal with everything that comes along with your conditions. To answer your question I have been diagnosed with Raynaud's phenomenon, Endometriosis, Fibromyalgia, IBS, cognitive thinking and memory issues, TMJ disorder, keratitis, chronic fatigue, migraines and an edema issue that hasn't been diagnosed yet. Thank you again for your reply, it is good to speak with someone who is affected with similar conditions. I hope to speak with you again soon.

Or all the above. Many members of my family have CSS related health issues. For me it's multiple chemical sensitivity, migraines, IBS and GERD. How does it affect you?
