I lost my moons (except for my thumbs), and my nails are stark white except for the reddish streak across the tip. In fact, my nails are what helped with my EDS diagnosis. After 18 months and almost as many doctors, no one had a clue and then I subluxed my T6 facet joints. I remembered reading something about reddened cuticles being tied to connective tissue disorders, so I went back to that research and went down the list of CTDs–when I read about EDS it finally explained everything and voila! here I am :).
