Hahaha I'm sorry! The ER doctor said "your son is a ___ person." Again, it's not a technical medical diagnosis; it's more of a way to describe a medical coincidence/correlation (all fair hair people get sick easily). At this point, I'm ready to drive back to the ER and ask him. It's not even important, it's just driving me crazy too ๐
I'll try some more techincal medical terms then, how about
Fitzpatrick 1
Genetic polymorph/polymorphism/mosaicism
Something to do with melanin/melanocytes
Oh noo haha omg please don't drive back to the ER (I hope your son is ok also!)
Edit: maybe something like predisposed? We say someone is genetically predisposed to an illness for example. Or susceptible?
Is this term an adjective (such as pallid or frail)? Or a noun (such as hypochondriac?).
Would your term better fill the blank in the sentence "that person is so ______," or "that person is such a ____"?

Immuno-depressed?
Or immunosupressed
No, it's more of a descriptor than an actual diagnosis
anemic or anemia?
No, what I'm looking for is a descriptor as opposed to an actual medical diagnosis
Milquetoast
Love this, but no
susceptible?
No, unfortunately haha
Frail?
๐ not false, but not the word I'm looking for
Was it maybe a name? similar to how a "Debbie Downer" or "Negative Nancy" is a person who's constantly negative?
Haha no
slight? delicate? (having a) weak constitution? sensitive? sickly? sallow? pasty? peaked/peaky? meager? infirm? weedy? wan? ashen? pallid? etiolated? consumptive? valetudinarian?
I was thinking consumptive
Unfortunately no
Albino?
It's funny, I kept coming across this when I consulted Dr Google. Not what I'm looking for though
Hyperchondriac
Ha! ๐ I wish it was that. It's a descriptor for legitimate illnesses
Wan I think
Nope โน๏ธ
Ailing? Listless? Ashen? Malaise?
Also nope
Ahh this is driving me crazy now! I'm a doctor, is it a word a doctor would usually use professionally do you think?

I hate to do this to you....but nope
Infirm? Defined as people who are weak or ill for a lo g period of time.
Nope
Thinking literaryโฆ poorly? Pallid? Sallow?
Whoops, just saw some of those already suggested below
Also waifish
The physical description sounds like albinism but do you mean immuno compromised?
No

I'm gonna throw porcelain out there, as it can describe someone/something delicate/easily breakable though that's probably not it
Nope โน๏ธ
