Look at Ehrler-: Danlos syndrome. There is a wide spectrum of manifestations for this genetic disorder. I don't think hashimoto's is related though.

Rheumatoid arthritis: May be worth it to see a rheumatologist to see if you have rheumatoid arthritis or another autoimmune condition...

Yes its possible: Seems like you need to speak with a rheumatologist and a musculoskeletal spine specialist that can help create a specific treatment plan for you.
