Kohlschutter Tonz syndrome

I mean Asperger's, Austrian, and this what's the difference huh? Why can't i find more than paragraph about this? Please forgive my dramatics.
I was amazed, and since all Aspies love to read about new and disturbing facts the human brain and geneology can produce, I thought I'd share it with you. Because it nearly describes me word for word. I've had a lifetime of illnesses, anxieties about my illnesses, together with being semiorphaned, and moving to a new country across the sea. I never quite knew why I couldn't feel entirely at home with fitting in with the Asperger's society at my age, and this just proves, cause someone lumped all these stuff in together and gave it a name (so what?), It means I'm not alone huh?
I've got Austrian and German roots, hey what do you know.

Kohlschutter-Tonz syndrome: A rare syndrome involving degeneration of the central nervous system, seizures and abnormal tooth development. More detailed information about the symptoms, causes, and treatments of Kohlschutter-Tonz syndrome is available below.
Symptoms of Kohlschutter-Tonz syndrome
1 * Epilepsy
2 * Progressive mental deterioration
3 * Amelogenesis imperfecta
4 * Excessive sweating
5 * Nearsightedness
6 # Increased blood sodium level
7 # High blood potassium
8 # Yellow teeth
1. Was in an incubator as a child, which I suspect caused this: I suffer from very mild Grand Mal Epilepsy seizures since age 10, had several though once in a couple of years or so
2. This is dementia, or Alzheimer's (German again!) disease nearly seen only after 65.
you could count in FTD or Frontotemporal Dementia but from watching some Youtube videos, that's definately not me. I do though, have a horrible memory considerably+, I lack order and clairvoyance, but I feel though i make up for it artistically, and it took me quite a long road to learn to control my abilities. Many have told me I lack emotion, though deep within I feel all the human emotions possible.
This worried me the most. I think of myself as a highly intelligent person, with a desire to adapt to the social world and proved it's possible, yet at the same time seem incapable more and more to control my own motivation (or lack thereof) to gain it all back again.
THC helps. A little sign of weakness that makes it all better.
3. just wiki it. (see #Cool since as long as I remember. Corn teeth one kid called me. In my youth it's been an embarrassment. But yet I've learned it's not looks that count. No matter how hard you brush. Plus, it's not that rare I've found. Dentists say it's my natural teeth color. I might consider splurging on a permanent whitening treatment.
4. Nah not so much. As much as any normal person during the hot months, but perhaps occasionally. My seldom lack of care for hygiene worries more.
5. Near-sighted, Far-sighted, I'm a walking blur. Perhaps due to the incubator again, what a coincidence. I was practically born with cataracts in my eyes. Age 4 wore glasses, until age 10 when the cataracts were diagnosed. I had surgery done to remove the lenses and replace them with huge magnifying glasses to see more than you can handle. Without them, I'd rather be blind than go dizzy from all the colors. 3 years and a lot of weird looks later, I had surgery at age 13 when I moved to Israel. They replaces my long gone lenses with artificial pigskin lenses. this was 1996. I could see without glasses, but unfortunately, not well enough to last. My right eye sees far objects clearer, while left sees a blur. You see, left needed a "resurgery" (a week of hospital food later). It wasn't all bad cause left is the only one that nearly make out my fingermarks. Lucky I got my handy optometrist shocker multifocals (yes another sign of young old age.) I see clearly but not perfect. I have high standards you could tell.
6. Disagree. I think I would've known by now, due to countless blood tests and hospitalizations due to my various illnesses.
7. See #6.
8. See #3.
Well I guess that's it. How many of the Asperger's community can relate to this?
I'd like to hear how rare this syndrome really is.
PS I might sound like a whiny person, but I take the world with a grain of salt. I'm an easygoing guy if you ask my few friends. This is just bottles exploding.
Sorry for double post in (social skills)
