EDS, or Elhers Danlos Syndrome (sp?) Is a muscle disorder where the muscles around joints are loose causing hyperflexibility, chronic pain and muscle weakness, Fatigue, and overall feeling like crap. At least it manifests that way for me.
Any chronic condition can be devastating. The frustration, fatigue. and depression that goes with makes everything harder. For me concentration and mobility are are affected the most. The constant pain and weakness makes it difficult to walk let alone exercise. It makes everything difficult. The frustration of not being able to do things because of my limitations is huge. It's hard not to give up and give in to the pain and fatigue.
If there is anybody out there that is in a similar situation and can relate please join in the discussion.
