    Hi @tracyhanks - welcome to the community, & thank you for joining. It's nice to 'meet' another fellow EDSer. I have the hypermobile type of Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome + neurological issues that can be associated with this. Due to EDS I have generalised osteoarthrosis, & chronic pain also......tho my neurological problems cause more pain than EDS.
    I'm sorry to read you have damage to your foot following surgery; I'm sure you're facing enough without that. How are you coping?
    This is a very friendly & supportive community, which I hope you also enjoy being part of. I look forward to hearing from you again. My best wishes. :)
