Hypothyroidism and allergies thankfully. Though I feel I am developing more, mainly involving digestion. O yea, ever since I was diagnosed, I feel that my eyes are scheduled to get worse every year.
Asymptomatic Stress-Induced Ventricular Tachycardia and something else on top of that. So I've had heart surgery.
Very nasty casine allergy (it is a protein in dairy) which caused me lots of symptoms that were misdiagnosed as learning disabilities, carpal tunnel, rosacea, and calcium deposits in all places besides where calcium should be--- hence the Osteopenia- again probably from the dairy allergy. Shellfish and treenut allergy, also deadly.
Umm... ya, other then that, perfectly healthy!
Hypothyroidism started as Hyperthyroidism, but they would not allow that anymore so they killed my glands! Those jerks!

Major Depressive disorder, anxiety attacks. Thats about it, when I was younger before I was DX, I was in the hospital for ear infections and anoids problem.
Diabetes and acute laziness here *grin* both are treatable
I have asthma and allergies during the spring/summer. I used to be highly allergic to milk, cheese, egg yolks, and corn. Those are all gone now, though. I think that's it besides T1. (=

haha! i have that too.
Oops I forgot one thing. I have a skin disorder. I'm super super sensitive to the sun. I have to like wear tons of sunscreen and I have to be extra careful outside. I can't be outside for long because I will look like a lobster. lol.
Grave's Disease which is a hyperactive thyroid then they had to slow it down with radioactive iodine and is now under active. So I have to take synthyroid.
I also have the first signs of retinopathy in my right eye.
nerofibromatosis, allergies , stomach problems , tumor on opic nerve , no perifeall(spelling? vision in other words cant see out if the sides of my eyes , head aches , high cholesterol(spelling?)
Oh, and I also get really bad headaches pretty often, some of which can last up to a week. I don't know if that counts as a medical thing, because I haven't gone to a doctor about them or anything. I get them whenever I'm stressed, out in the sun too much, sleep too much or too little, and whenever I drink caffeine. Sometimes they just come on randomly too. =/
I have an ear disease cholesteatoma, had reconstructive surgery 5 times on my left ear to try to correct it, allergies (everything under the sun, lol), early stages of kidney disease and had a tumor removed from my left ankle at age 9. Plus my mini stroke (caused by my T1)
My Dad had the bypass, are you part of the zipper club? lol
Epilepsy (caused memory problems), Esential Tremor Disese, neuropathy in my feet.
I have a brain aneurysm and just found out my gallbladder only works 23% lol. I'm sure it'll be taken out in the next couple years.
From reading though these posts (and from T1 friends I have), it seems like the following are common among T1's: asthma, allergies, heart disease/cholesterol, thyroid disorders, stomach/digestive problems.
As well as T1, I have many allergies (shellfish, avocado, seasonal, cats, band-aids and medical tapes), digestive issues (celiac ruled out in blood test, irritable bowel suspected), and I've had a strange rash all over my body for the last 6 months that itches like crazy and 2 dermatologists and a biopsy haven't been able to diagnose. Some days, I feel pretty depressed with this all too!
