HARTFORD — Kelly Eaves used to be a professional dancer. Now, on many days she can’t get out of bed. Eaves, 43, has been in pain every day for two years. She has Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, a connective tissue disorder. Her opioid medication helps her deal with the grinding pain that can leave her screaming and crying. The national opioid crisis is making her medication harder to get, Eaves said. She’s not alone, as restricted access due to the addiction crisis is leaving her and many patients with chronic pain unable to get the medications they say they need.
