Family with vascular EDS but I have hypermobility...

[Dumplinglife19]

Hello

So on my mother's side there is Vascular type EDS unfortunately. My brother, who sadly passed away from a rupture inherited it from my mum who is thankfully still with us at a pretty good age of 62 and 2 pregnancies which seems like a miracle with this terrible defect. Anyway I wanted to ask if it is likely I have a different type of EDS or not. I have hypermobility in all joints, nothing too bad so far, not troubling too much except recently where I have been less active and I know seem to have real weakness in my right knee and hip leading to recently what felt like a knee dislocation. Anyone know if I am likely to have a different sub type of EDS or if it is more likely I have another connective tissue disorder? Just interested really that I know I don't have vascular but could all my wobbly clicky joints be connected to my family EDS and what that means for the future of my potential children...

Do you look phenotypicical? If not, then it won't be a problem. Phenotypic type is large eyes, small thin nose, very thin lips etc. It's so rare that it's very unlikely. I wish goodness upon you with God's grace xx
