PRISM Spine and Joint

08/06/2026

We will not accept that EDS patients can't benefit from therapies when we haven't yet worked to adapt these therapies for these patients. Specialty care is core to treatment of many conditions, and it will be core to the management of EDS as well. Hypermobility, joint instability, and spinal instability care can be customized, personalized, protocolized, studied, refined, and made available to every connective tissue disorder and hypermobile patient.

Nothing is more powerful than an idea whose time has finally come.

It is time.

We know what to do.

We know how to do it.

We know what research comes next.

Let's go.

Collagen manufacturing requires genetic code for sequencing building blocks, depart codes fr the worker enzymes and proteins which cut them to the right size, clean up errors, align and transport them. Genes also encode for the genetic instruction to cross-link, coil, stack and organize them. By adding severa purple asterisk to the first photo I tried to illustrate a representation of how many opportunities exist for genetic error in just this one part of the process

Want to really get a migraine??? (I know, me either...)
This collagen:
1. Hasn't been incorporated into anything useful yet.
2. It will require ongoing upkeep by the immune system
3. The immune system will be unable to do its job without needed micronutrients, electrolytes, oxygenation, chronic inflammatory syndromes, etc.
4. In the absence of appropriate immune response, the immune system may make this worth by degrading the collagen without repairing it
5. Collagen isn't just musculoskeletal: it is vary of the lining and barriers throughout the body. Skin, GI tract, Lungs, Urinary Tracy, Blood Brain barrier. All of these tissues are at risk of poor performance from genetic mutations +/- exposures/deprivation of resources.

So grateful these women are out there. They have changed the world. Read on. I'll tell you how.

In 2019 when I founded PRISM and 2020 when I founded a nonprofit for EDS research (now part of EDS Society), I felt the weight of advocacy in a way that kept me up at night. Why did so few doctors know about "the triad"? How could we change this?

The mentors who so generously guided me had worked and continued to work tirelessly.

Why wasn't it enough?

These women and others have changed the landscape. I like to think I played my part as best I could. But knowing them and knowing they are out there has given me a peace that nothing else could. From the bottom of my heart, I am so grateful for these leaders and the others who have started labs, academic programs, published papers, grown foundations, raised money for research, donated.
