HOW I DEAL WITH FLARE UPS | MY LIFE LIVING WITH EHLER'S DANLOS SYNDROME (EDS)

Living with a chronic illness means that you have 'flare up' days or sick days.

These came come out of the blue, one day you feel fine and the next you feel like you have been hit by a bus. Or sometimes chronic illness flare ups can last for days!

I used to fight and resist flare ups, feeling guilty for giving into the pain and discomfort and thought I 'should' be able to just get on with it.

Unfortunately this is not an effective long-term strategy for managing chronic illness and can do more harm than good.

I have changed my flare up management strategy and here is what I have to say about how I manage the poorly days living with Ehlers Danlos Syndrome (EDS).
