What a nice husband you have! I actually broke down and went to the chiro yesterday because my hips and low back hurt so badly. It worked. Almost no pain there today, which is an even better response than usual so I must have been considerably messed up. Just the rest of my body is still hurting but that’s easier to deal with.

Blood pools in my feet when standing too, or when legs and feet are dangling, and the doctor doesn’t know why. She said she’s never seen anything like it. Her first response was, “That is definitely not normal”. I’d already had Erythromelalgia for several years but that causes an entirely different shade of redness in the feet with hot skin, lots of pain and different triggers.

“Dr. Diana will always hold a very special place in my heart for her selfless devotion to helping everyone, not just the Ehlers-Danlos community. I hate to think what my life would be without her insight and guidance.”
