Conversations With Our Community: Gastrointestinal Issues (GI) in Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS)

** TW: Discussion of Medical Trauma / Mental Illness / gastrointestinal functioning and complications ** President for The Ehlers-Danlos Society, Lara Bloom, speaks with Ellie in the United Kingdom, Savannah, Serenity, and Rachel of the USA, about living with gastrointestinal issues and Ehlers-Danlos syndromes, and the impact on quality of life and mental health. Upper and lower gastrointestinal tract complications are common in EDS such as swallow difficulties, sluggish stomach, and large bowel, causing nausea, vomiting, acid reflux, bloating, pain, and absorption, and food intolerance concerns. Also seen in EDS are hernias, out-of-place organs, and prolapse, as well as functional problems such as changes in the speed of the digestive system (gut motility). For some, gastrointestinal issues can be improved with treatment, specific diets or excluding trigger foods, and nutrition. For some, gastrointestinal issues can be severe and very difficult to treat. This discussion features lived experiences of severe gastrointestinal complications in EDS.
