I am a forcefully retired ballerina and veterinary nurse, due to chronic health challenges. After 45 years, 25 of which I was mostly medically gaslighted, I was diagnosed with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome/Disease & being on the Autism Spectrum. I started to realize back in 2013 that there was a better way to health (for me) than being ignored by mainstream medical personnel when I discovered online health talks & functional medicine. I made a plan to titrate off of pharmaceuticals, while implementing lifestyle changes, including supplementation of amino acids. This was shortly before I ever heard of Ehlers-Danlos. Since then, I have been helped by out-of-the-box medical thinkers online & in person. My goal is to share some pearls of wisdom that have helped me. But I tend to get off-track a lot. Sometimes it is just nice to be able to share experiences with people whether I am ranting or saying what has worked or not worked for my body. View all posts by The Chronically Ill Vegan Ballerina
