Hello there BlondeHippy! I had a look around for you and if you go to the DWP site there is a lot of info on Joint Hypermobility Syndrome and also links for support organisations etc. Hope the link below helps you

Thank you so much Jazher, that's lovely! Hopefully with the info on the DWP site and all the lovely people in our forum's experiences, BlondeHippy will have more than enough information and friendly support to help her.

I usually refer people looking for information on hypermobility to The Hypermobility Syndrome Association:

hypermobility.org/index.php

I second that - finally been diagnosed at the age of 52!

Thank you everyone. The links are very helpful. I saw a specialist and she has diagnosed this. I'm having an MRI soon on my back, hips and pelvis. Hugs to you all and make the most of the warmer weather thats on it's way - so they say xxx

Hi BlondeHippy

I agree with LindseyMid I would have posted the same link. The diagnosis is the first step, don't overload yourself all at once with info. It can be scary and daunting all the info but don't be afraid to ask questions.
