If you believe you have different leg lengths, have had troubles eating, been the smallest and generally most petite, have triangular facial features, a predominant forhead, curved pinky. Id recommend getting a genetic blood test done. But if its taken you to an adult and you've surviving id say your doing fantastic! If your a new parent, just take your child for monitoring and see your paediatrician.

I didn't know until I was 23. I was diagnosed at birth, but my parents never told me.

Usually when infants are diagnosed, they have other ailments such as failure to thrive, and sometimes are born pre mature.
