Hypermobility and hEDS are both common - but SO misunderstood. And often so easily dismissed as 'not a big deal'. A #SymptomaticHypermobility card is always in my bag so whenever I want to explain it, I can do so with minimum effort and maximum accuracy.
It's from -
Symptomatic hypermobility card with striped border. text "I have symptomatic hypermobility. My joints bend too far, injure easily, and may move out of place. This causes pain and fatigue, and can make everyday tasks challenging. It can affect other systems too, causing issues with digestion, bladder, heart rate, skin and more. Symptoms vary. Sometimes I look fine, other times I may need joint supports or a mobility aid. I may need to rest or to move, or to do things differently. Living with this is my normal."
