Yes, that was the conclusion reached by my new young neurologist. She had all the assorted files on my case and had two children (med students) ask questions about the me and the kids, as did the genetics department who had no solid answer as to why we could all be affected so severely in the same time frame. There answer was "something heritable/connective tissue realm/ nervous system and then sent me to rheumatology. Rheumatology sends me to neurology. They send me back and fourth to each other. They all scratch their heads and say it must be autoimmune on top of EDS, but no one wants to keep trying to figure this mess out or try treatments.
