Sleepysandy Survey Results update


Posted by sleepysandy on January 02, 2002 at 14:04:37:

Thanks for your great responses. I have everything on an excel spreadsheet so its easy to update and compute.
So here goes: In general there was an equal response from Males and Females: a total of 33 responses to date. I've only listed those categories where there was at least 3 or more people who listed it. I also combined a few things that were relatively close as diagnosis go. So here's what I have so far:

Average age: 50
Weight/obesity: 76%
Acid Reflux/GERD: 55%
Allergies/Asthma (if no allergies): 67%
High Blood Pressure/Cholesteral: 52%
Carpal Tunnel: 27%
Fibromyalgia,Arthritis,Autoimmune: 36%
Diabetes,Hyperglycema: 21%
Depression: 12%

I found this little project very interesting. Please continue to add little tidbits about yourself so we don't make ourselves feel that we are a list of ailments!
I will coninue to add to this list (or update it if you forgot something) as long as there is interest in doing so.
