I just wanted to add that I strongly disagree with some of the experts that say people with Classical or Hypermobile forms do not have vascular issues. I see that TONS of us either clot or bleed, develop aneurysms, etc. I’m researching this now, as I believe we can prevent these horrible sequelae (unless we do have the vascular form). If you are afraid that you may have the vascular form, I’d suggest you scope out some pics — it may be very reassuring. Vascular folks DO have a “look” to them — pinched, thin noses, thin hair, very little subcutaneous fat on their faces, visible chest veins, etc. Hope this helps!

“Dr. Diana will always hold a very special place in my heart for her selfless devotion to helping everyone, not just the Ehlers-Danlos community. I hate to think what my life would be without her insight and guidance.”
