EHLERS-DANLOS SYNDROMES

 
HYPERMOBILITY AND THE EHLERS-DANLOS SYNDROMES (EDS)Quick Facts – New Zealand Focus - Health Professional Version
​

This link is a short article giving the Quick Facts of EDS for busy Health Professionals and for EDSers who need some factual information.

​

  • If you are someone with EDS or who thinks you may have EDS, this is a great article to give to your doctor (as a link or printout) so that they can get a quick overview of EDS to better be able to help you.

  • If you are a doctor, physio etc who needs to get a handle on EDS basics, this is for you.

 

I wrote it to give the important basics with some useful links to additional information.
