Ehlers-Danlos Support

I can't believe I've never mentioned this! Way back in 1991 I was diagnosed with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome. Those of you who know me in real life, know of finger, wrist, shoulder, hip, knee, and knee dislocations, of me suddenly falling over, of being in some sort of physiotherapy pretty much constantly. Well, recently I was approved as a mental health provider with the Ehlers-Danlos Society. I am the only one in Kelowna, I haven't checked the rest of the valley.

I guess that I want to put it out there that if you have any version of EDS I understand the frustration, comorbidities and confusion around having an invisible disability, particularly this knot of connective tissue differences. I am in private practice and if you have extended health, check to see if they provide coverage for an RCC. That way someone else will pay for you to have someone to talk to about this stuff.
