EHLERS DANLOS SYNDROME

MY INVISIBLE ILNESS
Diagnosed with Hypermobile Ehlers Danlos Syndrome (hEDS) at age 11 and Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) at age 26, Camille has grown up battling chronic pain and invisible illness. Camille advocates for people to be mindful of invisible conditions like hers. "People think you're a unicorn when you win Miss America, and they don't think you have anything wrong with you, but that's so untrue," she said. "And that's the whole issue with EDS— people like me look like I'm 100% fine, but then have all these other things that I deal with." {Forbes}
