A MyChronicPainTeam Member asked a question 💭
Hainesport, NJ

I've been dealing with this issue on and off for the last 19 years. At the reconstructive orthopedic clinic I normally get cortisone shots in the problem shoulder and depending on the severity physical therapy at my local hospital. I would love to know of any other ideas to address my pain. I'm thrilled with the pain relief with the cortisone shots, but being a brittle type 1 diabetic I'm always looking for help with the pain that doesn't mess with my blood sugar. Preferably home stretches that… read more

Is Anyone With Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome Willing To Talk With Me?

A MyChronicPainTeam Member asked a question 💭
Sault Ste. Marie, ON

I have suspected EDS and am awaiting official diagnosis, but I am coming to find that I feel extremely alone in this as even my partners don't quite understand what I am dealing with. This has been a wonderful community of caring, understanding people, but I would very much like to connect with people who have been diagnosed with or suspect they may have EDS and perhaps learn more about living with it as even regular chronic pain tricks don't always help.
