I cannot believe that EDS (Ehlers Danlos Syndrome) & HSD (Hypermobility Spectrum Disorder) awareness month has come round quite so quickly again! This is the beginning of my 4th annual set of EDS awareness month videos which bring together people from across the world with different types of EDS & HSD to raise awareness and tell you what it is like to live with these conditions on a daily basis. It would mean the world to us if you could share and help raise awareness this EDS awareness month 2020.

This week I'm talking to 2 very special zebras who both live with rare types of EDS. Sydney is from the USA and lives with Classical EDS which means her skin is extremely fragile and extremely stretchy. Many of the other traits if cEDS are similar to those experienced with the more common hypermobile type. Bradley is from Australia and has vascular ehlers danlos syndromes which affects 1 in 90,000 and is one of the most lifethreatening types of EDS.

If you found this video helpful or informative please consider donating to our fundraiser for the EDS society https://www.justgiving.com/fundraisin... . You can find more information about EDS & HSD by visiting ehlersdanlos.com

I'm Chronically Jenni & I was diagnosed with EDS, POTS & a CSF leak in 2016 and I make weekly vlogs about my life with chronic illness as well as content that helps other people living with these conditions and raises awareness.
