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.

Back pain from DDD, goes down my legs and I cannot sleep.

I have been having a rough weekend with my pain and my depression/anxiety and more so, far of what is to come, after recently finding out I’m being forced off of my pain medication. My health insurance is stating that they are tapering me down due to the obvious opioid crisis going on in the world which I completely understand, but to leave me with so many questions, no choice in this decision, no non-opioid medications or alternative treatment options being considered or offered, no plan if… read more

Bill 1427 passed the WA Senate, and although some parts are good, their is a requirement for our DOH Medical Quality Assurance Commission to adopt new opioid prescribing rules by Jan. 2019.

I am collecting information in an attempt to contact those that are making our laws about opioid addiction. I have already contacted some law makers. When the new proposals are announce, I want to be very ready to get active in trying to be sure that those of us in chronic pain are not ignored in the process.
