Ehlers-Danlos syndrome awareness month May 2015

Eagle eyed readers will know that we looked at Ehlers-Danlos syndrome and hypermobility in a blog post a few months ago. For an overview of the condition please go here.  If you do have  Ehlers-Danlos syndrome it would be great if you could share your story at this blog to both help us raise awareness but also to provide support for people who have just been diagnosed with EDS.

There is one crucial development to that blog post which we would like to share.  At the time of writing it was believed that Ehlers-Danlos syndrome and hypermobility affected  1 in 5000 people.  Recent research has suggested the real figure might be 1 in 200.

As May 2015 is Ehlers-Danlos syndrome Awareness Month we thought it would be a great idea to ask our readers to help promote the event.  It would be great if you would  share the image above and use it as your Facebook profile just for the rest of the month.

Many thanks in advance for your help and support!
