@drjoe_md: Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is a genetic disorder characterized primarily by the development of multiple benign tumors called neurofibromas along nerves in the skin, brain, and other parts of the body. It is caused by a mutation in the NF1 gene, which is responsible for the production of neurofibromin, a protein that helps regulate cell growth. This condition manifests in various ways, including changes in skin coloring (café-au-lait spots), learning challenges, and skeletal abnormalities. NF1 is an autosomal dominant condition, meaning it can be inherited from just one affected parent, and its symptoms can vary widely in severity among those affected. #neurofibromatosis #medical #doctor #geneticdisorder

My daughter and i both have NF1. I dread this happening to either one of us. We have both had multiple fibromas removed. They are itchy and painful.

My father had Neurofibromatosis but a much milder case. Thank goodness my sister and I did not inherit it. I just have Lupus and Fibromyalgia and my sister has RA and diabetes.😳😳😳
