I recently found out that I have type VIII Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome. I also found out my 5 year old daughter has it as well or at least is showing symptoms of it. I have chronic pain that I am on a regular anti-inflamatory for and have lost all my teeth. My daughter has also lost many of her teeth and her perm are coming in bad. Along with this Syndrome I also have an auto immune disease called Grave's disease. So I am having a very rough time of it. Anyone have any advice?
