    I found it quite telling that the one thing most of us EDSers deal with daily and have plenty of is pain- yet this is the only discussion topic with so far no posts whatsoever …;-)

    ok on the one hand this probably means that so far everyone on here is an ‘old hand’ at dealing with this… but on the other it also tells me that what some docs/med bods seem to think we are… weak, whingey, moany, low pain threshhold peops… we certainly are NOT!!:-)

    I just noticed that, too! I like to think it is because so many of you are following The Driscoll Theory and by taking pressure off of your brain, and taking care of some of those awful mast cells (many mast cell mediators intensify pain), that you are just doing better than most!
    Well, I can dream, can’t I?

“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.”
