Hi there, I'm in a strange place at the moment.  I've just had my diagnosis of fibromyalgia over turned and been re-diagnosed with Joint Hypermoblity Spectrum Disorder according to the newly revised diagnostic criteria. I am very much symptomatic!  Just saying Hi for now but very much looking forward to chatting with the rest of the community :)

    Hi @Andreasuperstar welcome to the community - we had a guest post recently about hyper mobility and Ehlers Danlos Syndrome, I know its not the same thing but wondered if it was of interest to you?

    Hi everyone my daughter was diagnosed with hms/EDS and has had flavour since 13 and as a child was under GODH . Since having to turn to pip has been turned down even her MR has left her 2 points on living and 4 on mobility . We have now got to go to tribunal. Why is pip not taking this condition seriously I’m getting so tired of fighting
