A member asked:
Is it possible to have symptoms of different types but not the full ehlers-danlos syndrome?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Spectrum of variety: Yes, it is possible to have several of the symptoms associated with eds and not have the formal syndrome. Many hyperlax individuals have severely loose joints (shoulder and knees are typical), yet they do not have formal eds.
