I've got very loose joints that are currently very annoying (but allow me to contort and freak people out), they do odd things and sometimes hurt for no apparent reason. I fall a lot, have poor coordination, and get hurt a lot as a result. I'll be walking and an ankle or knee will just give out. Or better, at work, my wrist will give out when I'm carrying a tray. Sports are not my friend...

There are certain activities and movements that I avoid as they cause problems, and even when I'm careful or haven't done anything, I'll sometimes wake up iwth something hurting/being uncooperative.

It's not a matter of what I can or cannot do as much as a matter of what I should or should not. If someone's chasing me with a knife, I can run (given I'll probably trip anyhow, or they'll get me within a few seconds because I"m so bloody slow), but I really shouldn't take up jogging as a hobby, just like I shouldn't dislocate my shoulders just to show off.

So I guess my problem isn't that I can't move, but that I can move too much. Then again, I can always look forward to arthritis fixing that up a bit with time confused .

I have severe migraines, which sometimes cause parts of my body to stop working... For instance, a while back I was walking along normally until both legs threatened to give way. If I hadn't sat down, I would have simply fallen... Another time, I couldn't see out of my left eye for over an hour.

As I said in another thread.

My right eye rarely makes tears,my right eyebrow doesn't move,nor does the right side of my mouth...to smile I mean.

My left hand is not as useful as my right,and I have little feeling in parts of my left forearm.

I too have a severe migraines which sometimes cause me to feel weak,and even pass out.Sometimes blurred vision or nausea.

Because of my scoliosis I have my back fused so I can only do limited movement there, if that counts sweatdrop

I had most of my leg amputated 2 years ago. It causes a lot of problems with my movement at the moment coz i dont have a suitable proshetis get coz i keep growing. but hopefully i should have a nice new leg soon

My cerebal palsy makes my legs function oddly, making me walk weird. I don't notice it, unless I look in mirrors. Which makes me hate anything that makes me look at how I walk.

I have spina bifida. :] I'm in a wheelchair...though my legs MIGHT be strong enough to walk with a walker. I dunno. I may have to ask my doctor. I'd like to try. <3 I know I can't do crutches though. I tried that...and...let's just say I made best friends with the floor. I'd need more support than that.

Umm.

Oh. And I can't feel from my knees and down. Woo.
