couple days ago when bones popped outa left ankle it took awhile b4 i realised i could maybe pop them back, big ouch but it worked. few more days b4 it hit me that this is a 'spread'. yesterday on our hike as i was being very gentle with left ankle, right one actually initiated similar sensations of being broken altho no actual popping out of bones.
so i'm thinking the rsd is doin something in the joints and its probably time for me to do the research on this process.
any and all directions gratefully appreciated, blessings from the forest

This could be a kind of Ehlers Danlos and you should be tested for it/seen by a rheumatologist. But be prepared a lot of them will dismiss you cause they don't know what Ehlers Danlos is and would rather brush it off.
as to the dislocations.. they suck and living with them is a constant pain in the neck, back, elbow, ankle, collar bones, shoulders, wrists...etc
The docs that know the most are actually in the UK. check out **
