  • Resumen

  • Whether you’re bendy with all the benefits or hurting in all the wrong places, you’ve come to the right place for all things hypermobility. Connective tissue disorders like Ehlers-Danlos Syndromes (EDS) are often dismissed or overlooked by healthcare providers as a cause of chronic pain. But if you or someone you care about struggles with the life-altering symptoms of hypermobility, you should know YOU ARE NOT ALONE! At the Bendy Bodies Podcast, we understand. Each week, join Dr. Linda Bluestein (The Hypermobility MD) as she pulls back the curtain on how to prevent injury and unnecessary suffering in “double-jointed” individuals seeking a more comfortable life in their unique, complex “bendy bodies.” When you tune in, you’re engaging in more than a podcast. Both on-air and online, you’re joining a supportive community where patients, caregivers, and healthcare professionals trade insights, life hacks, and inspiring stories to embrace our Bendy Bodies journey together!

  • Dental Problems in EDS with Dr. Audrey Kershaw (Ep 143)

    Dental Problems in EDS with Dr. Audrey Kershaw (Ep 143)
    May 1 2025
    What if your dental history held the key to a complex diagnosis no one’s caught? In this gripping episode of the Bendy Bodies Podcast, Dr. Linda Bluestein welcomes Dr. Audrey Kershaw, a trailblazing oral surgeon who’s uncovered hundreds of hidden Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS) cases—starting in the dental chair. From patients who “can’t numb up,” to decades-long battles with halitosis, gum fragility, and jaw instability, Dr. Kershaw shares the subtle (and sometimes shocking) signs that suggest something far deeper is at play. Together, they explore what happens when TMD, failed anesthesia, slow healing, and even bad breath point to connective tissue disorders that most dentists never learn about. If your mouth has always felt... different—this episode might explain why. Takeaways: Some patients can’t numb up… and the reason may change how you see your entire body. Your wisdom tooth extraction might’ve revealed more than just a dental issue. That persistent jaw pain? It may be pointing to something systemic. A 40-year case of bad breath led to an unexpected diagnosis—here’s what happened. You might be able to spot a connective tissue disorder… before a dentist even says a word.

  • Is Your EDS Party Trick Causing Long-Term Damage? | Office Hours (EP 142)

    Is Your EDS Party Trick Causing Long-Term Damage? | Office Hours (EP 142)
    Apr 24 2025
    What if the very things you do to feel or look better are quietly making you worse? In this solo episode of the Bendy Bodies Podcast, Dr. Linda Bluestein answers listener questions—but what begins as a practical Q&A quickly dives into rarely discussed truths about cosmetic procedures, EMFs, neuroinflammation, and even fragrances as dangerous triggers. You’ll hear surprising stories from patients who’ve suffered unexpected complications—and discover how seemingly harmless habits, like party tricks or perfume, could be tipping the scale toward long-term damage. Plus, Dr. Bluestein unpacks the case for renaming MCAS, the underrecognized connection between transness and hypermobility, and why your surgeon might not be as EDS-aware as they claim. If you think you’ve already heard it all about EDS, MCAS, and chronic illness—you haven’t heard this. Takeaways: A harmless beauty treatment… until it’s not. Learn what no one tells you about EDS and cosmetic procedures. What if your MRI looks “normal”—but your spine is screaming otherwise? Think party tricks are just for fun? Your joints might not agree. One invisible environmental trigger may be silently wrecking your nervous system. Even your surgeon might not know this one crucial detail—unless you ask the right question.
