About

Welcome to the Hypermobile Physicist! I am a physicist/engineer with HSD/hEDS and and a host of related conditions such as MCAS, asthma, allergies/sinus issues, sleep apnea, and anxiety. I started this blog to write about my experience with my recent diagnosis, share what helps me manage my chronic pain, engage with the chronic illness community, and hopefully learn a lot in the process.

Though I hope it’s obvious, I do want to say that while I am a Dr., with a PhD in Physics, this does not make me a medical professional. I have no formal medical training. I will share my experiences and what works and doesn’t work for me, but nothing I say here should be considered medical advice. Please see the disclaimer page for more details and consult with your team of medical professionals before changing your care in any way.

I will maintain a resources page on this blog with links to outside resources that may be useful. Please contact me to suggest more and let me know if you have any questions or other content requests!
