It's scary how accurate this is. I mean SCARY. When I put my real name in, it told me the symptoms of my disease were swollen eyelids (I have styes there right now), arm pain (tendonitis), and fear of the number thirteen-- well, they missed that one, being the contrarian I am I always thought Friday the 13th was luckier than average for me. But even so, spookily accurate. And the cause? Old sports injury. Yup, I have one. You wouldn't think so, because I've never played sports much, but I managed to get one, got the damaged ankle to prove it. See my reply to Batty's post if you don't believe me, I cut-and-pasted my results there.

As for your 'disease,' I don't see much evidence of the symptoms, but perhaps it's in its early stages. Certainly if any disease were caused by overconsumption of (safe, edible) mushrooms, you WOULD be in danger of catching it. :D
