Unfortunately I don't have the energy to put together some info for the mega this week, hopefully I can pull together something for next week though. As always, we ask that in order to participate in the weekly megathread, one self-identifies as some form of disabled, which is broadly defined in the community sidebar:
"Disability" is an umbrella term which encompasses physical disabilities, emotional/psychiatric disabilities, neurodivergence, intellectual/developmental disabilities, sensory disabilities, invisible disabilities, and more. You do not have to have an official diagnosis to consider yourself disabled.
Mask up, love one another, and stay alive for one more week.
the doctor agreed that EDS testing was worthwhile and referred me to a geneticist 🎉
and I only cried a little bit during the appointment so 🎉🎉🎉 😂
she was mostly very nice, but there were a couple of moments where I could feel her getting skeptical and I started getting overwhelmed, and I'm very glad I had the pleasantly stoic @shadowinlight@hexbear.net along to jump in to help explain things
