About the Book
A practical patient-perspective guide for dealing and healing with hypermobile Ehlers Danlos syndrome (EDS), POTS, and comorbidities.
Tired of being told there’s no treatment for your illness? That it’s "all in your head" or that your pain can’t be real because you’re too young/old/pretty/bright/healthy/normal to have a chronic disorder? Maybe you've been dismissed by doctors and disbelieved by loved ones that your suffering is even real?
What if instead, there was someone who knew what you were going through and could teach you strategies for coping with rare chronic illness?
This is not a false hope. You can turn pain into possibility with this life-changing book that can help everyone with elusive hypermobile Ehlers Danlos Syndrome (hEDS) – from those newly diagnosed to those who have suffered in silence for decades. Wherever you are on your journey navigating the complexities of chronic illness, you're not alone.
In Holding It All Together When You’re Hypermobile, Christie Cox explores not only the physical effects of hEDS but its emotional impact as well. As a fellow patient and medical rarity, known to doctors as zebras, she’s experienced her body’s betrayal and suffered through the myriad complications stemming from this disease. But she’s also found a way out from the depths of this life-altering disorder with wisdom you can turn into hope.
As a self-advocacy guide, she offers practical, no-nonsense advice about living with chronic illness and the concrete steps you can take to achieve a new normal.
