Today, I found out my dad has a 1-in-a-million disease that makes your liver process pain medication at twice the rate of a normal person. If that wasn't bad enough, he also tells me he hopes I don't have it too, because it can be passed down. He said this because I'm 29 weeks pregnant. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I found out my father didn't have a rare brain disease, and that he was just an alcoholic. I've been taking care of him every time his "brain disease" acts up, for 2 years. FML
Today, my father, who I haven't spoken to in over 12 years, contacted me. He just wanted to let me know that I should get tested for a rare neurological disease. The only thing the man has given to me since my conception is potentially a death certificate. FML
Today, I’m getting a very interesting demonstration of how genetics work: I have inherited all my dad’s health issues, plus those from my mom, plus a bunch of new ones that belong exclusively to me. FML
Today, I had a seizure. My dad responded by saying it always happens with my disease. I never have had a disease. Now I have to wait for my dad to stop yelling at my mom about not telling me, so I can ask what I have in the first place. FML
Today, I'm found out I'm pregnant. My husband and I spoke at length about how we were going to handle things, which included him "forbidding" me from having an epidural, because he doesn't want our baby to "come out addicted to drugs." FML
Today, I found out that I have a heart disease. When I went to tell my family, they all said that it should kill me faster so that I can donate my organs to my cousin. FML
Today, I got my medical checkup back. Apparently, I'm diagnosed with a liver condition generally found in alcoholics. I've never drank in my life. FML
Today, my dad’s in hospice, my son was diagnosed with a second rare disease, my wife is unemployed with alcohol and depression issues, to the extent of having ruined our marriage by driving us into bankruptcy. I have high blood pressure and quite honestly, I’m surprised I haven’t had a stroke or a heart attack with all this. FML
Today, my father informed me that I was born only because my mom lied about being on birth control. FML
Today, I found out that my unborn son has an abnormally large head. I have an abnormally small and narrow pelvis, and I'm allergic to local anesthetic, so no epidural or spinal for me. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

it's hardly a disease! it's a genetic condition! anyway, if that's true then the doctors will prescribe pain medication at twice the rate as normal then! Also, quit your moaning, it's only labour pains, it's not as if you have a chronic pain complaint!!

Her father may have just discovered it in himself. So if OP has it, she may not know yet. Not that I'm wishing anything in you, OP!

Not sure it's 1 in a million. I do that too. Not even sure it is a disease, but whatever. I could think of far worse diseases, like the 4 friends I have lost to cancer and the one dying today. Funny though, if you do have it the doctors will not listen to you. I had a root canal and explained my problem in detail to the doctor before he started. He told me that if I felt anything, he would stop and administer more medicine. Half way through, I told him I could feel everything he was doing. That was right before he inserted the root extractor in my tooth to pull out the nerve. Can you say "levitate 12 inches off the table"? O.M.G.

Hmmm, well sounds like you've only got one option, OP.... Have fun with that natural child birth, I hear it's a riot.

I don't think an epidural runs through the liver, so your cool. and if u eat some killas after the birth, u just need twice as much, so your good. p.s. don't go break a bone or rupture a disk in your back some how, ever.
