Default Hypermobility and RSD

Hi everyone,

I just wondered how many of you with RSD are also RSD?

I was diagnosed with Hypermobility Syndrome around the same time as I was diagnosed with RSD and was told by my PTs that people with RSD are often Hypermobile as well. Apparently when you are Hypermobile, your joints bend more than in a 'normal' person, thus making you more likely to develop a Chronic Pain Condition such as RSD.

I was just pretty interested to see if anyone else was Hypermobile and whether there could be a link between Hypermobility Syndrome (HMS) and RSD.

Thanks!
