Q:
What does Your foot in mouth disease? mean?
A:
I think you are mixing together two different things here:
"hand foot and mouth disease" is a viral illness →手足口病
"putting your foot in your mouth" or "putting your foot in it" means to say something tactless or embarrassing, in particular if it embarrasses someone else.
Example:
Darryl introduces Mark to a girl named Emily at a party.
Mark says to Emily, "So do you know which girl Darryl is trying to make out with tonight."
Darryl looks awkward and Emily laughs, "I think you've put your foot in your mouth Mark!" (because Darryl has been flirting with her all night, and Mark has given away his intentions).
Sometimes people will play with the words of this idiom, for instance 'you might want to take your foot out of your mouth!'

Using "had" and "was" would mean that this was all in the past, as if you were telling a story of something that has already happened to you. You could use this if your heart has now moved on, but had not at the time.
an example could be "when i was 12 years old, i had a pet." (this tells us you were once 12 years old, and you used to have a pet but not anymore)
Using "have" and "is" emplies that the situation still efects you now, and your heart is still there, it still effects you. It is a current sotuation.
Another example could be "Being 12 years old is great! i have pets." (this tells us that you are twelve years old, and you have pets now)
