Joint Dislocations And Pain Posted: 02-12-07 19:32pm
I have a disease called ehlers danlos
syndrome. I can roll over in the night
and my shoulders can dislocate. I have a
bag full of different types of braces for
all of my main joints. (wrist, elbow,
knee, and an ankle foot orthotic)
ehlers danlos is a type of arthritis and
can cause serious pain. The pain consumes
ever moment of my life but I have a
sibling and daughter with totally
different issues than I do.
Google ehlers danlos and find info if you
have any of the following symptoms.
Pain,
dislocations,
bruising,
swelling
hypermobile joints (double jointedness)
healing issues
tmj
fibromyalgia
hearing loss
one of the major television stations in
the us just did a show on eds and they
showed a fellow from england with very
stretchy skin. He also had this disease
but it was a horrible portrayal of this
disease because most of us do not have
skin like his. That show was intended to
help others but no one is going to think
they have this disease if they don't have
skin like he did. I hope that I can make
up for that terrible show by helping
someone else.
