Ehlers Danlos: I have patients with Ehlers Danlos syndrome with relatives with the same syndrome. So there is definitely a link and you need a specialist to help you. We have Dr Nussbaum in San Francisco, but if you go to the Ehlers Danlos or Marfans website you can find local experts. Dr Rich Blake http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1986313/
