A couple of weeks ago I learned that I have Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome ( Hypermobility type ). This has made so much sense to me. It was like OMG this is it, This is the answers I've been looking for these last few years. I'm happy that the MS has finually been ruled out. It took my physical therapist to figure my puzzle out. It's wonderful to have someone take the time and the sit down and listen. This isn't all in my head. He took a complete history from birth. Things like dental history. Just all fits.

Both my sister and her hubby has got Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome. My sister in a milder form, but her hubby in a worse form.
I feel for you and I know a bit about what you're dealing with.

So glad you have a diagnosis so can start making sense of things. Did you know there's a national foundation?

Hi Perna, yeah I'm suppose to be getting information from them soon. I looked at their website and they have a message board there, but it cost to read and post there. I haven't found much info for here in the states though besides that site.
