Hypermobile Joints/EDS and COVID

Posted by healthhopefreedom @healthhopefreedom, Dec 31, 2020

Hello,

Who here has had symptomatic joint hypermobility and contracted COVID yourself or children?

My son has COVID and we’re already both in constant pain from HSD/EDS.

I just wonder what some others may have gone through. So far he’s only had a fever up and down.

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Post-COVID Recovery & COVID-19 Support Group.

@healthhopefreedom, I'm sorry to hear that your son contracted COVID-19. Is he able to self-isolate? Does he live with you?

Hello @colleenyoung, thank you. My son is only 8 and he lives with me. He is having significant fears of covid. I am fairly certain I’ve contracted it now as well.

@healthhopefreedom I understand you are looking to make a connection with members who have experienced COVID-19 alongside of HSD/EDS.

In order to connect you with a broader audience, I have added your post to the Bones, Joints, & Muscles Group to bring in more members to share their experiences.

I am sorry to hear you think you may have now also contracted COVID. Have you considered getting yourself tested to confirm?
