Back home in CT...and in a Dysaut flare from the trip *sigh*
The visit was AWESOME!!!! Dr. Francomano is the BEST person to see if you have EDS hands-down.
She noticed a lot of funky things...and said my EDS is atypical...but I do have it...Hypermobility along with Mild Classical.
I also found out I have Chiari Malformation, a Tethered Spinal Cord, and Costochondritis.
I have to have some more tests done, go to the Chiari Institute in New York and begin PT (aquatic and relaxation), learn biofeedback etc and get an Rx for Flexaril because my muscles don't relax AT ALL.
Because Brittany is not well at the moment (dislocating knees) we weren't able to meet...but maybe another time I can go back (or randomly she ends up here).
Ooooh and I went shopping
