Resilience in Adversity: Sue's Journey with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome and Health Challenges
Episode 3
Wednesday, 14 May, 2025
Sue from South Africa shared her experience with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome and multiple health challenges. Although she was diagnosed with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome only six years ago, she described being a fragile child with several physical abnormalities that went unnoticed by doctors. These included an indented sternum and a skin issue at the base of her spine. Growing up, she struggled with physical activities and faced bullying due to her abilities, which contributed to her emotional distress.Her health challenges continued into adolescence, exacerbated by a severe dog bite that led to post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), which was not recognized at the time. During her teenage years, she also battled insomnia, anxiety, and depression. Sue developed Lyme disease after a hiking trip, which led to chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) and other health issues linked to Ehlers-Danlos syndrome.Despite her struggles, Sue pursued education, ultimately earning degrees in psychology. Throughout her journey, she has become more aware of her physical and psychological challenges, working to advocate for herself and understand her conditions better.
