ROAD-TO 2026 The International Consortium on Ehlers-Danlos Syndromes (EDS) & Hypermobility Spectrum Disorders (HSD) Facilitated by The Ehlers-Danlos Society The New Global EDS & HSD Diagnostic Criteria is Coming December 1, 2026 The Ehlers-Danlos Society
Major Update Is Coming to EDS & HSD Diagnosis For the first time since 2017, the diagnostic criteria for all types of EDS and HSD are being updated. The countdown begins to publication on December 1, 2026 A new chapter in understanding, diagnosing, and caring for EDS and HSD.

What Will Be Published The updated work will be released in two phases: December 1, 2026 • Updated classification • Diagnostic criteria • Diagnostic pathways March 2027 • Best-practice care guidance • Assessment and management pathways

A comic about an interaction I had with my physical therapist while getting ready to leave. Dialogue: Me: „oh by the way. Supposedly I have this abdominal hernia. Should I get that fixed?“ PT: „what?“ Me: I don’t know. I’ve had it since I was born? But the doctor back then apparently said it should be fine and if I ever have some sort of surgery they’ll just fix the hernia too while they’re already at it.“ PT looks increasingly more concerned. Me: „but sometimes I get this stabbing pain in my abdomen when I sneeze. Or standup too quickly. But I think that’s just the normal kind of pain sneezing causes.“ PT, yelling: „please see a doctor immediately“
I love telling physical therapists about the weird hole in my stomach lmao #hypermobility #hsd

Background is orange, and image shows close-up of multiple transparent test tubes, some filled with a blue liquid, with a pipette dispensing liquid into one of the tubes. Text on the image reads: NEW STUDY REVEALS Immune Dysfunction in Hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome Published in ImmunoHorizons, this additional research provides yet another fresh biological insight into hypermobile Ehlers–Danlos syndrome (hEDS), the most common but least understood form of EDS. HEDS is a multi system condition leading to dozens of comorbid conditions. This study found clear markers for system immune dysregulation in patients with hEDS.

Blue on white infographic reads: "BUILDING YOUR MEDICAL TEAM: A PATIENT CHECKLIST." There are seven tips, each with a green checkmark: Describe your daily life clearly: Tell doctors about your pain, fatigue, GI issues, and daily limitations. Use relatable examples: Compare your challenges to things doctors know (like having the flu). Ask trusted doctors for referrals: “Who would you send your own child to?” is a powerful question. Stay focused in appointments: Bring a short, organized list of issues related only to that doctor’s specialty. Share helpful resources: Provide links to articles or presentations. If they’re not interested, consider moving on. Don’t overlook younger doctors: They’re often eager to learn and open-minded. Use your support network: Ask local groups and friends. There are small illustrations including a thermometer, clipboard, doctor, group of people. "www.chronicpainpartners.com" and in the top right corner is a logo for EDS Awareness (Ehlers-Danlos Syndromes).

Heel lelijk bobbelig rond kussentje
Voorbeeld van nek die niet wordt ondersteund
Ik heb vandaag een (onooglijk 😂) rond kussentje zelf gemaakt met de naaimachine van een oud hemdje en een restje memory foam.
Het is voor mijn hypermobiele lange nek die 's nachts in het luchtledige hangt waardoor ik wakker word van de pijn
