Coarctation of the aorta, endocarditis, a deformed bicuspid valve (instead of tricuspid) in my heart, 2 broken ribs, cracked nose, and allergies so severe that I could die if I didn't have my meds near in case of an emergency would be my list. I can be blamed for the nose and one of the ribs, but the other things are pure chance.
The trick, I've found, is to have systems set up to make the conditions as unintrusive as possible. You've got an impressive list, but I suspect that things can be okay so long as you have your systems set up and you develop the patience of a saint. I'm 23, and I'd say I live a happy life, despite any medical problems.
Several conditions you have might require surgery. Are you getting the necessary treatment? If the answer is no, then malpractice lawsuit would be best. If your doctor isn't doing his or her best to keep you well, they're breaking their oath.
