I am recently diagnosed with Ehlers-danlos hypermobility syndrome. It has been a super hard journey, for a while I thought I was dying! I couldn't eat for a few months and the doctors thought it was psychosomatic. Thank you for sharing with us. Something about these videos you share help normalize the struggles. I don't have a PICC or a feeding tube, but I do have tons of braces. I just wanted to tell you how much it means to see someone else whose life is as unpredictable and UNSTABLE as mine! You're inspiring. I feel better when I watch your videos, especially on the days I'm stuck in bed.

I have a port... should I have gotten a card with a number?? Do I need to ask my surgeon about this?

You brought up a good topic. Something I have been thinking about lately. Everytime I go into stores, especially craft stores... there are women customers who wear wayyyyy too much perfume. I try to stay away from them if they are in line. If I cover my nose they think I am weird. No matter what I do they think I am weird. But one sniff of their perfume and I end up sick and with a migraine and in pain. So that mask you have.... I like that idea but my question is... how do you use it? Do you just wear it the whole time you are out? Do you put it on randomly? Do people ask why you wear it? In the winter I can put my scarf up on my face and avoid peoples strong odors but in the summer I need another plan. I need a plan to be able to be out and about and not react. I also am afraid to get sick and frankly some people just dont' cover their mouth. If I get sick.... i will be in more pain and suffering than a normal bodied person because of my mast cells and eds. Right now I have these gloves that I wear all the way through spring and don't really use in the summer. But the gloves help protect me from touching germs and then touching my face. I really do need a mask thing though. I am so new at this... I dunno how to do some of these things. Do you think you would be willing to do a mask video? Or a video of what you do when you go out to keep safe?

Can I ask what is in your prescribed pain cream? I’m thinking about asking my doctor for that type of compound medication and I’m just curious what’s in it. 💜

I have a Hickman central line and I was never given a card? Should I ask someone about it?

what variety of ll bean bag is it? I really love the bags with the mesh separators and can't seem to find anything like it

I also very much enjoy whats in my bag videos, i've fallen down that rabbit hole way too many times! Have you ever needed to use to your epipen?

Christina Doherty could you leave it in the inside wrapper but take it out the cardboard box? You could put the sealed tray in a fabric bag like the others you have for a little protection but less bulky 🙂

Woa! I have a clotting Disorder (Lupus Anticoagulant) and I've had to take Lovenox injections (ouch!). But did you say you have Heparin too? Do you use both the Lovenox and Heparin daily? And do you have to check PT/INR's to see how thick your blood is? Are you prone to clots? Sorry if this is too personal, it's just interesting to me since I live with the fear of clots all of the time, and it seemed like your blood must be very thin using both thinners, but could it be because you cannot swallow a blood thinner tablet like Warfarin (Coumadin)? My condition is known as "sticky blood" and so I thought my blood thinners were rather strong until I saw you with both. I love your video though! I love watching the What's in my Bag videos a lot!

+Beth Wade Hey! My doctor actually thinks I have sticky blood as well. We are still running panels. But I am on the lovenox, heparin (to keep the PICC free of clots) , and asprin. I had a stent placed in my jugular vein a few months ago and after that I was on high dose aspirin and Plavix and lemme tell ya, now that was thin blood 😂 We aren't quite sure if I have a clotting disorder, I have had a few TIAs, or if Its just because I have narrowing in the vessels of my brain, but the blood thinners help my symptoms a lot.

Very interesting. I am in a group called Antiphospolipid Syndrome Lupus Anticoagulant on Facebook and someone there just asked for prayers for their daughter who had EDS and Lupus Anticoagulant. I was wondering if there is was link....both appear to be autoimmune connected. Stay safe. And yes, all of those thinners! It's amazing you aren't Anemic! Good luck on your blood tests. I remember when they were testing me, they took 14 vials of blood at once! I had to sit there and have some snacks to keep from passing out because they took so much. Hopefully if they are just trying to check for the sticky blood, you won't have to go through all of that! Hugs. Let us know how it goes!!!

Somewhere in that bag is the usual loose change and period products. 😂 jk It looks like you've got a lot to think about. 😬

You didn't develop type 1 diabetes as well, Christina, did you? Or is monitoring blood sugar more about being sure you have enough carbs and nutrition?

+Andrea Hultman As Sarah mentioned I have been having issues with my blood sugar spiking and dropping these last few months, but it seems to be more related to my feed schedules. I am starting to get it stabilized by changing my schedule around so it seems like it isn't really true diabetes 💜

You've gotta have some strong arms girl! I think it'd be interesting to see what you bring with you when you travel.
