For years I had three things I never connected to each other. Looking back, they were the warning lights before my body crashed.

Hypermobility I’d always written off as just being flexible. Asthma I developed out of nowhere as a teenager. And a growing list of foods that suddenly didn’t agree with me.

At the time they were three separate annoyances. It was only after my crash with CFS that I understood they were part of one bigger picture: mast cell activation.

It’s MCAS Awareness Month, which is why I’m sharing the part of my story I don’t usually tell. If you’re collecting symptoms that don’t seem to belong together, you’re not imagining the connection.

If your symptoms feel scattered and unexplained, you don’t have to work it out alone. We have an Integrative GP, Dr Tania on our team with a special interest in MCAS. Join the waitlist via the link in bio.
