Hi, i've been diagnosed with hypermobility, myofasciitis and marked ligamentous laxity. i'd just like more information on what all this means.

See a physiatrist: Up to 20% of people have hypermobility of some or all joints. Sometimes, this is associated with serious medical problems. You need a referral to a physiatrist or other specialisti in muscle distasse to see if that is the case or if this is a benign problem
