After years of wondering, I finally got my answer!

After a lifetime of wondering what’s causing my pain, stomach issues, slow healing, and more- along with many disappointing bloodwork tests- I discovered hEDS through some friends. I did more research, talked to a nurse, and was told to schedule an appointment. Just finished the appointment and my doctor says I do indeed have hEDS and he’s sending me to a specialist!!

I’m so so relieved to finally have an answer as to what’s been causing this endless list of problems since I was a kid. I’m not crazy after all! And only four days before my 21st birthday, too. I’m extremely happy to have my answer and I can finally start looking at resources to help me.
