  • My Story

    Been diagnosed with EDS etc after 55, so I lived my whole life labeled as ‘weak’ ‘fragile’ and ‘weird’. I suffered frequent muscle and tendon injuries, chronic back pain, chronic migraines which have now become vestibular with only very mild pain, dizziness and lightheadedness. I always reacted badly to chemicals and don’t metabolize medications well, thus suffering adverse effects. Sugar especially wrecks havoc in my system, as do several specific foods and of course stress.
    My problem is that I can never be sure what causes the symptoms, whether it is purely physical or not and I wonder whether I could get some help and relief from Sarno’s theory.
