It's that time of year again! EDS & HSD awareness month comes around quick! I'm back for my 5th annual series of Ehlers Danlos Syndrome & Hypermobility Spectrum Disorder Awareness Month videos with my dazzle of zebras from across the world. This year we have 27 zebras with 4 different types of EDS and HSD from 8 different countries sharing their experiences of what it's like to live with these rarely understood conditions on a daily basis.
In this video we are sharing some of our top tips, tricks and hacks for living with HSD, hEDS, cEDS & vEDS. Having shared some of my eds hacks on my instagram in my #hacksforspoonies series I thought I should ask my fellow zebras what their favourite hacks and best tips. I really hope you find some of these ideas helpful.
