I sat there watching and saying "she's got Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, you twits" - they got there in the end!

I was identifying with her despite the weird knuckle cracking thing - "I am in pain all the time" along with the usual sorry saga of being misdiagnosed and not believed over and over again. In my case it was being overweight (causes everything apparantly - even being a bit overweight) and having 'stress' (didn't).

i saw this too and could identify with it -same joints affected -tho not dislocation-(but deformity) -abdominal conditions-misdiagnoses of IBS and Fibromyalgia-,

Jay66 i am the same-years of not being believed-being told I am overweight yet dr's not accepting I dont eat cakes biscuits snacks puddings or that weight gain is due to abdominal "mass"and not diet related,Still get told IBS even though never had symptoms -and confirmed by consultants its not.going to put this to m y GP next time i see him.

I have been low carb no sugar for over a year now due to diabetes. Still overweight! Had one low sugar biscuit this morning for Easter...
