Thank you! I’m going through this with hypermobility. I don’t have marphans so my doctor won’t recognize my symptoms as significant. I have gi symptoms a dysregulated heart beat and foggy brain and I have trouble healing from injuries, but I look fit so my doctors won’t consider my requests for care and treatment. They aren’t interested in preventative care or my random symptoms.
