    • Close Hypermobile Syndrome

      Have had joint pain all my life.... find it worse with cold, damp weather, and when the seasons change. Most of my joint issues are in my shoulders, ankles, elbows and knees. Luckily, the only joint that I experience fullblown instability in are my shoulders. The rest is more mild in my elbows and ankles, and mostly just paint in my knees. Have some of the proprioception issues that are often common with the hypermobile syndrome as well.

      Treatments

      Heat Working / Worked
      Usually coupled with wrapping I find heat and support help with achy joints
      Wrapping Working / Worked
      helps to give support to the tired achy joints.
      Ibuprofen Somewhat Helpful
      Due to pregnancy and now breastfeeding this is all I have been taking for almost a year and a half. Somedays its difficult to cope with only this and I miss my stronger meds I used to take.
    • Close Fibromyalgia

      Have had Fibro since 1996. I believe it became prevalent because of a whiplash injury. With my joint hypermobility, I understand that a lot of people with hypermobility also have Fibro.... they kind of go hand in hand, and from what I've read about both, it makes sense, unfortunately.

      Aqua Therapy Somewhat Helpful
