About
Many situations can cause disturbances in your sleep patterns, and often simple lifestyle changes can dramatically help to improve your sleep quality. But while most people experience occasional periods of sleep disturbance, many others suffer from disorders such as chronic Insomnia, Restless Legs Syndrome, Excessive Daytime Sleepiness, Chronic Fatigue/Fibromyalgia , Chronic Headaches, Epilepsy and Seizures, Concussions, Neurological Disorders, ADHD, Sleep Talking/Walking (Parasomnias), Airway Issues, and Sleep Apnea. In these cases your doctor may recommend that you see a specialist in order to diagnose and treat your disorder.
EDS Healthcare in Texas
UT Southwestern in Dallas is a leader in EDS research and clinical care. Mind+Body Medicine in Dallas has an intensive outpatient program for EDS patients. Texas Medicaid implemented a new genetic testing policy effective October 2025 that covers testing with documented medical necessity. The Texas Association of Genetic Counselors supports statewide access to genetic evaluation.
Texas's vast geography creates enormous access disparities. The Dallas-Fort Worth area has the strongest EDS resources, but patients in South Texas, West Texas, the Panhandle, and East Texas may face drives of 5-8 hours to reach specialized care. The state's sheer size means telehealth is essential for many patients. Wait times at UT Southwestern can also be significant.
Finding Neurology for EDS
Ask whether the neurologist has experience with tilt-table testing for POTS and upright MRI for craniocervical instability, since standard imaging often misses EDS-related neurological issues.
