Hard to tell: Neck pain and joint pain is just as common in eds as in many other non-eds causes. As far as joint surgeries go, I am not sure what kind of surgeries you had and for what reason. Definitely, eds patients have multiple joint problems (hypermobility, fractures, laxaty etc.) that makes them prone to trauma etc.

Can be: There are several websites that discuss eds. This site appears to be a good one: http://www.Medicinenet.Com/ehlers-danlos_syndrome/article.Htm get the facts on ehlers-danlos syndrome (eds) symptoms (joint hypermobility, skin laxity), causes (inherited), diagnosis, types, treatment and research.
