I had to jump through alot of hoops and I am 40 and had several co-morbidity issues...

Not my finest moment but you do what you have to do.Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09210759567767466760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3567385775542087238.post-43891295876579057272010-06-14T13:00:19.032-07:002010-06-14T13:00:19.032-07:00Do you have any sort of family history of co-morbi...Do you have any sort of family history of co-morbidities?
