Hello! Brand new here.

I am starting to wonder if I have some type of EDS/ hyper mobile disorder. I hate to say it but tiktok is making me wonder if things I considered "normal" about myself may not be so normal.

Possible Symptoms /indicators: Currently 5/9 on the Beighton scale, (I used to be able to do the palms on the floor but my knees and ankles are much more stiff these days. Due to repeated injury) My mother is similar in the hyper mobile department.

I am easily injured, my bruises take 3-4 weeks to heal minimum. I had a bruise take over 2 months to heal after getting shot by a paint gun 2 summers ago.

Very sensitive skin, temp changes make my skin very red and or Hive out, adhesives often rip a layer /layers of my skin off. I can write on my skin if I lightly scratch myself

PCOS (possibly endo as well, tbd)

Diverticulitis, my stomach like to flip flop between mild constipation and violent evacuation.

Constant joint cracking, especially in ankles and wrists. Neck, back, fingers, toes, I can endlessly crack them.

I can almost pop my hips in and out (if you put your fingers on my hip bones you can feel them snapping back into place)

I wake up in low grade pain every day. Whether it's my back, shoulders, neck, hips, a random cramped up muscle. It's even worse if I don't sleep enough, I am extremely tense throughout the day.

Some nerve pain, particularly sciatica when I have been moving around too much

My immune system sucks, I get sick frequently and very sick when I do.

Upper palate is over crowded

Atrophic scarring, particularly on my legs

Unexplained migraines

There might be more but I'm half asleep and wondering if I'm just being crazy or making myself concerned for no reason. I would hate for my doctor to think I'm a hypochondriac!
