About Me: I have been going through my 20's with pain. I was diagnose with Ehlers Danlos Syndrome in 2005. July 2008 I received a definitive diagnose of Ehlers Danlos Syndrome Type I. Beginning of November 2008, I started having a really bad flare up that seem worst than my normal EDS pain and my meds were not working. I finally got to see a Rheumatologist after having a consult in since Aug. on Christmas Eve 2008. That is when I got the news that I also have FM. Wow, what a shock. Also, I am married (5 years) and had our first child in Sept 2008.
