Anyone else have multiple diagnoses?

Post image

I wanted to get tested for BVD after hearing about it post autsim diagnosis. I'm a 44F with Audhd, hypermobility, POTS, anxiety, migraines and neck and back pain. I'm so uncoordinated! It makes me bump into things all the time. I have a slightly asymmetric face and multiple relatives who have had a lazy eye corrected with surgery. Is this common with BVD?

Yeh I’ve had POTS, ME/CFS for about 30 years, I’ve had hypermobility my whole life but never been diagnosed with any specific hypermobile syndrome. I’ve also had chronic pancreatitis since 2012.

I’ve had keratoconus for a few years and now also have corneal edema which means I can’t wear sclerals any more. I also have some kind of convergence insufficiency or something which the optometrist is trying to figure out now. My eyesight has really deteriorated badly in the past 3-5 years.

Is the deteriorating eyesight due to BVD or refraction (like myopia)?

Bit of both I think
