A member asked:

Mom was disabled by osteoarthritis in her 50's. multiple spine surgeries. i am 37 w/ oa in lots of joints. could we have ehlers danlos? worth knowing?

Hard to say: ED has definite features that most docs are familiar with. I would find it hard to believe you could live well into adulthood without someone investigating you both if you fit criteria. It can accompany but is not specific to ED patients.
