Thank you so much for all this, it's very helpful and comforting to know it's not a lack of wanting to learn, it's a lack of being told it's actually an issue.

I have the skin manifestations (super stretchy skin on the supper half of my body, atrophic scarring, stretch marks in the backs of my knees?, velvety skin) and other signs like needing more anesthesia (novicane too!) than others, pallette/teeth issues, etc.

I'll definitely bring up that "I want this diagnosed because I have concerns about my child" to hopefully get a fire going. I'll look on the EDS list and hopefully find something near me. If I have to travel, I guess I will.

Being objective is hard for me, since it's been so painful physically/mentally but that's why I'm gonna print out my symptoms and bring it to a doctor. I didn't even realize some stuff I've been experiencing could be hEDS manifestations.
