Thank you for your comments. A few months ago saw my GI specialist and was

dismissed due to no symptoms on the barium enema. [Any problem stretched out of

the way during the test.] Later at my Gynecologist, I was dismissed as totally

healthy. She said my skin was thin and dry.

They referred me to an uro-gyneclogist [because of my low & high BP spikes].

I was later dismissed because I could not feel pain. Arrrrg. But I am

learning. Since May I now know I am EDS and " insensitive to pain. " I read that

EDSer

tissue problems do not show on typical scans. I am beginning to wonder that

perhaps inflammation and swelling and or redness also do not register on the

tests and/or scans.

I do have a plan. Wish me luck. Caro.
