The best and most informative podcast on vEDS. Incredible for anyone with the condition or related to someone who has it. Katie and her podcast are a gift to anyone dealing with vascular ehlers danlos syndrome.
Love Katie’s passion behind this podcast and love how she is giving people with veds a platform to tell and share their story!
This podcast provides a fascinating and informative window into a rare condition and its many serious issues. For those going through the often long diagnostic odyssey, it’s probably the best resource available online. It is frank and unflinching, but also deeply hopeful. It should be required listening for doctors who treat VEDS patients.
I’ve been listening to Katie’s podcast since soon after it started, and it’s amazing! Her interviews with other people with vEDS around the world are so informative, whether you have vEDS, another type of EDS or are simply interested in learning more about this condition. Thanks Katie for all your hard work to spread awareness!
