OK, technically I do not have an EDS diagnosis. In fact I've been told flat out by a geneticist I don't have it. (He didn't even test my DNA.)

But...

* Hypermobile joints everywhere
* Causes chronic pain
* Often co-occurs with ASD
* Often related to chronic fatigue sydrome or fibromyalgia
* Chronic inflammation, not rheumatic in nature
* Areas of stretchy, velvety skin, stretch marks

Basically I'm a walking EDS poster, only I do *not* exhibit hyperflexibility. Which I only recently learned is a different thing from hypermobility.
