How does this condition effect your daily life?

      I didn’t know I had NF until I was 17, I have minimal spots and no external fibromas. I pretty much go on about my day normally but have to stop and hold my breath for a bit when I bump into something and it hits one of my fibromas in my arm or something lol (ouch). I have one in my hand and I hit it against my steering wheel by accident all the time. But for daily life, it doesn’t affect it much aside from that. Sometimes I’ll get strange pulsing nerve pain in concentrated areas but usually that only lasts max 10 mins and then it goes away
