My 16 year old daughter has RSD and Hypermobility as well, She knows of other young RSD friends that are hypermobile as well. You PT person should be able to help you with that. Good luck.





QUOTE=ali12;524889]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![/QUOTE]
