This is a very unusual disorder and i believe it to be hereditary. I also will make the assuption that having this disease causes people to have a least one other disease from this disorder. This disease has not really been publically talked about wonder how many people get this disease and who is it

I think it is very likely that, like me, many readers of this page were inspired to look here by the episode of House MD (S2.E1, "Acceptance") that mentions this condition. Does it warrant a "references in popular culture" section or something like it?
