@healthhopefreedom , you may be onto something! When I'm able, I'll definitely get it evaluated. I have joint stiffness at times, but for the most part, no pain. As a teen, my bones were popping out of place all the time. I figured I was just growing too fast.

Until I was 30, I could bend my thumb down to my wrist, and bend the top joints of all my fingers. I still have trouble pushing stiff buttons, because my finger just bends and bends. I rarely bend my knees when I pull weeds, etc. On the other hand, I've never been able to squat or do some other normal movements involving my thighs and hips.

I'm sorry to hear about your slipping discs. That sounds awful!
