Who else has Turner's Syndrome?


I'm almost 16 and was diagnosed with Turner's Syndrome at age 14 and I was wondering who else has Turner's Syndrome.

I have Turner's Mosaic Syndrome, which means it's not full blown. I have problems with my ears, thyroid, reproductive organs, but not much else.

I was diagnosed at birth and I understand how you feel.

I have full-blown TS. I'll be 16 in March, and I was diagnosed when I was 13. I'd love to talk sometime, do you want to meet on YIM? Report It

no, thats very uncommon, 1 out of 2500 female births turns out with turners syndrome.

I heard that Jamie Lee Curtis, the actress has turner syndrome. I dont know if it is true but you should look it up online to find out if it is true. She is beautiful and became a successful actress. So dont feel bad. No one will ever know you have it unless you tell them. Just dont tell anyone. It is your business and no one else's. Everyone will treat you the same if you dont let them know about it. No kid or regular person (someone without a medical degree) would ever guess that there is anything out of the ordinary about you.

i had a friend with it.. She looked a little different, but took a lot of pills and whatnot to appear more normal. 15? it took them that long to figure out you had Turner's Syndrome? Usually its diagnosed much much sooner since people with that type of birth defect have additional problems as well..

its quite rare actually.
