I obtained my medica records from the pediatrician today. I got my history from the day I was born until I was 18 years old.
A few interesting things I found out:
1. i suffered from chronic ear infections until I had tubes in my ears. ( Can that have a long term effect on my hearing or health?)
2. I suffered from Chronic bronchitis ( can that have a long term effect on my health? Esp. cause I'm a smoker)
3. At age 13, I was tested for depression, and I was determined to be very high risk for suffering depression later in life...interesting that that prediction came true...
4. My mother took robotussin and asprin while pregnant with me and admittid that she wasn't sure she wanted me, but had a support system in place.
5. I suffered from a lot of vaginal infections age 5 and under....inteesting because my uncel babysat me at that age, and it later was discovered he was " doing things" to me
6. I was always a vegitarian. I knew this...but it was neat to find out that I have never eaten meat, and it was always a concern with my mother and the doctor. I always had very very poor eating habits, was alwyas picky, and never ate meat.
7. At age 12, they suspected I was anorexic due to soem weight loss and my picky eating habits....odd, because I have never been concerned or aware of my weight.
Intersting to discover my medical history...
