About my

Trisomy-X-syndrome

(also called as: Triple-X-syndrome)

  • In May 2010, when I was 39 years old, the 'Trisomy-X-syndrome' was found accidentally

 

  • The Trisomy X syndrome means: having 3 X-chromosomes in stead of the "normal" 2 X-chromosomes, as a woman

 

  • I am hypersensitive to stress, I experience an event intensely and often need a lot of time to process an experience

 

  • I often suffer from pain and stiffness in my joints, all over my body

 

  • As a child, I already had bad teeth, and still I have to take very good care of my teeth

 

  • I have learned to cope with some of the symptoms, and am still learning, every day,  both about myself and about the Trisomy X syndrome

 

  • Trisomy-X-syndrome causes both physical and mental complaints

 

  • I am hypersensitive / allergic to dust, perfume, chemical additives, nuts, trees, grasses, latex, chromium, nickel and histamine

 

  • I am often insecure, anxious (from no apparent reason) and can suddenly lose track

 

  • From the age of 13 until 45, I suffered a lot from my menstrual period (with stomach pain, cramps and a lot of blood loss) and nowadays from hormonal complaints (including headaches)
