Looking for advice on managing my health decline

Hello all. I just created this account hoping to be able to connect and better understand my somewhat recent health decline. I do not have medical insurance so I haven't been receiving treatment for the newer conditions. my older sister was diagnosed with EDS last year, and with it being genetic and me also having all the symptoms I think it's pretty likely. Recently I've been interested in finding sitting work out routines, but I'm not sure where to start. I just know I need to get into better shape.

Hi, I don't know if this is helpful for you, but I found that it is helpful for me. I walk all the time. I'm not sure about your specific issues, but if you're wanting some low intensity exercise, walking is always a good option. Stretching, body weight exercises, and resistance bands are other things you could consider for light exercise.

What Entropyluna said, but be careful with stretching. There is only specific stretching that is safe for people with EDS to do. I would look it up on YouTube.
