Volunteer online: Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) is a group of heritable connective tissue disorders. There are six major types of EDS. There are many people who have forms of Ehlers Danlos and chronic pain who have not been diagnosed. Raising awareness of this condition though participation in online chat groups and spreading the message the pain is real can help.
