I’ve felt like a medical mystery for decades as I’ve had test after test and seen specialist after specialist. Then I was diagnosed with CRPS in 2017 and most doctors I see blame CRPS for anything they can’t explain. My GP has always had my back, and we’ve gone through it all together. Then recently she told me she’d been listening to this podcast, Bendy Bodies, and that I was the first person she thought of. She thinks I have EDS, MCAS, & POTS. Listening to your podcasts and your guests (like D... more

I have felt very alone on my health journey, as I live in an area where no one really even wants to recognize hEDS, POTS, MALS or MCAST ( I also have FMD) I have nearly lost my life twice to ruptured aneurysm, spontaneous subdural Bleed and now living with pretty sure MCAST of which I feel so pushed aside because none of my Drs want to even recognize it is a thing. ….. Thank you so so so so much for all of your information. It is encouraging to know someone hears me, and so many like me.

Thank you Dr Bluestein for sharing your wealth of knowledge. After my hEDS diagnosis I found few resources or people talking about what can be done. Hearing you and your guests have made me feel less alone and help me navigate what is going on with my body.
