Question : I believe after a lifetime (22 years) of pain and joint issues that I have hypermobile Ehler’s Danlos Syndrome. I 99.9% believe it, but I’m not sure what to do about constant, life ruining neck pain. I saw that CCI is something that happens with this and I wanted to know what I should do to be able to get a diagnosis? Everything in my body is messed up and my primary care didn’t know anything about it. I feel stuck.
