Romantic Computer geek
Romantic Computer geek Hi I am one of the longest living survivors of something called DiGeorge Syndrome I found out I had this when I was 33. DiGeorge syndrome (22q11.2 deletion syndrome), a disorder caused by a defect in chromosome 22, results in the poor development of several body systems. Medical problems commonly associated with DiGeorge syndrome include heart defects, poor immune system function, a cleft palate, poor function of the parathyroid glands and behavioral disorders. I was born with out the Parathyroid glands it is called Hypoparathyroidism it is the combination of symptoms due to inadequate parathyroid hormone production. This is a very rare condition. Hypoparathyroidism is characterized by weakness, muscle cramps; abnormal sensations such as tingling; burning and numbness (paresthesias) of the hands; excessive nervousness; loss of memory; headaches and uncontrollable cramping muscle movements of the wrists and feet. Other symptoms may be spasms of the facial muscles (Chvostek Sign); the contraction of muscles produced by mild compression of nerves (Trousseaus Sign); malformations of the teeth, including enamel and roots of the teeth; and malformed finger nails. In some hypoparathyroid conditions, there may also be pernicious anemia; dry and coarse skin; thin, scant eyebrows; patches of skin that have lost pigment (vitiligo); and mental depression. I am on Social Security and work as a Web Designer I work with mostly non-profits. I can walk but not far I can use my power chair & I have a wheel chair as well as a walker. My friend pushed me at the twins game last weekend it was great to get out. I like movies and enjoy watching anything on True tv or I.D. Discovery or history channels. I like music anything 80's and Contemporary Christian. I would love to find someone special to share life with. I also hope to find someone that can see me and not my handicap. I have allot to give maybe it will be you?
