Peterborough
Penny
My name is Penny, I’m a 43 year old mother of 2 teenage sons. I moved from Tunbridge Wells in Kent, to Peterborough in 2007 and have lived here since then. I was diagnosed with EDS in my 20’s but grew up with multiple health issues. I have a diagnosis of EDS hypermobile type with features of the vascular type.
I also have POTS, MCAS, chronic migraines, cerebral palsy, arthritis, bronchiectasis and GORD alongside gastroparesis. Despite all this, I enjoy shopping for gifts, arts and crafts; especially painting reborn dolls. I also enjoy social events and talking to people. I have been volunteering for various groups since I was in my 20’s
