(CW: food preparation, curse words, rapid clips 10:10-10:12 & thanks commenters for informing me: a Melanie Martinez song until 2:09 from the radio playing in the background) Ever seen pain level: Grumpy Annie? Its here. Mostly a typical chronically ill/spoonie day, low spoons, moderate to high pain levels, and DEALING WITH ERROR AFTER ERROR trying to render, export, and upload the video. I think this is the most grumpy Ive ever been in a vlog, the circumstances were infuriating and my pain levels were high. Im partially kidding about retrograde, Im agnostic about it, blaming retrograde for tech problems is my venting. Watch as I battle my painful symptoms and the Retrograde monster for my chance at a perfect Vlogmas!

![Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome: My Diagnosis Journey [CC]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/ot1HFF7QWbQ/hqdefault.jpg "Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome: My Diagnosis Journey [CC]
I started my diagnosis journey at 23 and finally got answers when I was 26; almost three full years of being in and out of doctors and test after test, appointment after appointment. For many people, this process can take even longer, for similar reasons to mine taking so long; doctors who either did not know about EDS, had prejudices about what EDS should be or look like, or just lacked any patience or understanding at all and wouldnt listen. This experience is not isolated to me or to people with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome.
People on year long diagnosis journeys perform unacknowledged physical and emotional labor in order to find answers and seek treatment and appropriate medical care. When someone tells you they are undiagnosed DO NOT think hypochondriac, fight your own prejudices. Diagnosis can take an extremely long time but that does not mean that they are not truly ill.
