Hi my name is Holly and I am new to the group. I was diagnosed with Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy in 1993, since then I have had to use a wheelchair to get out and about. I also have Hypermobility and Sciatica. I am hoping to make some friends on here and to talk to people who understand how it feels to be disabled. Thank you for letting me join the group. ?
