Hands?
So, I know that Ehlers-Danlos, autism, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's are all in the same genetic family. My family has a history with all of them. I'm next in line for Parkinson's in fact.
So my question is for the entire group. How many of us have been diagnosed with Ehlers-Danlos?

If you have, do you have any tips for anyone who is recently diagnosed or seeking diagnosis?
Personally, my best tip is to really be careful walking and moving until you're familiar with how to walk without hurting yourself as often. Also, brace up. Literally, get a bag and fill it with braces of every kind. It helps.
