Uhhh, EDS Type 3??? Hypermobility

[Guest guest]

Hi! I posted a couple of weeks ago as an introduction because my

daughter and husband have the Classical form of EDS. At any rate I

have Chiari and was just seen in NY at the Chiari Institute. Get

this...they think that I have EDS 3! I did the tests mentioned on the

eds foundation website and could do all of the stuff but I've always

thought of myself as rather stiff not loose...esp in comparison to my

husband and daugther. My oldest child, (not Hannah who has EDS)

however, (who is from a previous relationship and not my husband) is

quite flexible, more than me in some ways, less in others. Is there

anyone out there that could shed some light on this for me. I cannot

even imagine that I have this, that my husband has this, that we have

2 different types and married without ever knowing of me having it.

How weird is that?? How can I know if I really do have it? Ideas?

Thanks!

Robin
