I suffer from EDS. I am both Hypermobility type and Vascular type. Can I get a “WOO HOO!” for winning the dysfunctional genetic lottery? LOL! It is a horrible disease; the Hypermobility type caused me a great deal of pain. I suffer from numerous subluxations and dislocations. Every joint is prone to it.

The road has been rough, but I’m glad to finally know my health status after being in the dark about it for so many years!
