Strange, a great deal of what Steve listed also applies to me. I also broke my nose as a kid and I have the same sleep problems. Every once in a while, Dorrit has to wake me up because my breathing gets pretty irregular and makes her think I have an obstruction in my air passages. And I snore whenever I lie on my back so Dorrit pounds me in the side to roll over which stops the snoring.
On the blood side, I have chronic anemia. I have had to take iron supplements ever since I was about 3 years old. I can't absorb iron unless I also have B-12 shots on a monthly basis. The shots are because I don't absorb B-12 naturally but I need it to absorb the iron. (hope that makes sense).
I don't think that the above would come under blood diseases but it is still a problem. If I don't take the iron and the B-12, I would get pretty run-down in a few short weeks.
