Should I be concerned?

Thanks. I do know about all that. EDS is a connective tissue disorder. There are also many of us who have not had issues until were are older. hEDS is not well known among the medical profession, and I found it better to just deal with the issues as "connective tissue disorder", finding solutions for controlling the places that hyper-mobility shows up, It can be minimized and kept under control. Prolotherapy for SI attached ligaments stopped my subluxing hip. Now I have movements to keep the SI Joint in line .... knee to the chest, gently stretching the illiopsoas and the hamstrings, etc.
Hope you have found ways too!

That’s wonderful and yes boy do I get that it’s not recognized. I have worn the shirts and put magnets on my car and have bracelets and am constantly quizzing doctors! The Zebra has become more well known and I do my little part. My way is to have each joint corrected . If I had known all that was ahead of me I would have moved south as a young woman and worked out daily in my own salt water pool. I waited too long and circumstances kept me in the north where the cold did a lot of damage!
