Still haven't gotten the results of the echo back yet.

Later today I meet with a Boston geneticist who's known for his work with EDS, or so I hear. My PCP referred me to him so quickly - she actually had recognized the EDS symptoms & signs before I had even said a word to her about it!

I feel so scared, and yet almost elated to finally be able to get diagnosed with a type of EDS. I strive for the definitive in life.

I've had my wrist/arm in a brace for three days - I must have injured it while using a wire cutter. Oops. At least it doesn't hurt as much, though.

I am officially signed up for all my classes in order to return to school! You better believe I'm not giving up.

My back hurts so much today. I've been feeling like I want to just let myself slump even further than usual - and rest my head in my own lap. I feel so stupid saying this for some reason.

Tomorrow I have my echocardiogram to find out if my heart is affected by EDS.

I feel so lonely, and I'm tired of having to explain what EDS is to everyone. I think I might join that Boston group of people with Ehlers-Danlos. I hear there are only three members so far, but I really haven't heard anything about it other than that.

Meh, my gums hurt on the right side of my mouth. Maybe I should go floss and rinse with salt water..
