    I have been on max Uptravi dosage since early 2019. Over a year ago, I asked my specialist about reducing my dose because of persistent painful and debilitating side effects. All too often Acetaminophen barely makes a dent. In response, they scheduled some different tests but have yet to discuss outcomes or change my dosage.

      My dad is on uptravi 1400 mg 2x a day and opsumit. He is now anemic and has chronic diarrhea. I'm convinced it's something with these meds. Remodulin (IV form of uptravi) nearly killed him and now he has foot drop after the last injection site. It's not been an easy road and I feel like it's reduced his quality of life big time. Not even sure it's working tbh.

    Prolotherapy or PRP can usually help if a patient has persistent back, neck, shoulder, knee, and other ligament pain that cannot be seen on an x-ray or MRI. Unfortunately both Prolotherapy & PRP are sadly are usually not covered under most insurance plans. Ehlers Danlos syndrome patients can greatly benefit.
