Only way to: Know for sure is by careful history and physical examination, along with some tests. Can't tell you any more here. Get to a doctor to make sure.

Doesn't sound like: There is a wide range of flexibility in normal individuals as well as within eds. The only way to know for sure will be to be evaluated by a doctor knowledgable in eds. The fact that you have lost mobility lends more credence to a negative diagnosis.
