I have only been able to date back to my grandmother's parents who immigrated from Minnesota in the early 1800's to Canada. I have not been able to find out for sure what medical problems were in my family but I have Fibromyalgia and a blood disorder as well. My brother does too and my daughter has an anti clotting disorder from low platelets. I have had trouble with Hypoglysemia and Arthritis as well. Reading this has opened my eyes as to where this has come from now. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
