You won’t know for sure with the physical therapy unless you try. I am a personal trainer who has worked with older people my whole career (40 years). The right exercises can slow the progression, strengthen supporting musculature, and help manage pain with proper stretching techniques. Definitely worth a try and if it helps continue with the exercises. They only work as long as you do them. I have Ehlers Danlos Syndrome.
Good luck!!

Hello @riddle, Welcome to Connect. You are so right about exercises for us older folks. They are so important to keep us mobile and they only work as long as we continue to do them. I have neuropathy and balance issues and just learned a few new ones from my Mayo PT last week. Now I just have to continue to work on them daily.
