My daughter is 8 and has been diagnosed with hypermobile joints since she was 2. It mainly effects her right side and she is a lot slower at sport etc, her right leg
kicks out to the side when she runs. In a couple of years she has to have an operation on her leg to straighten it. I don't know to much about this condition as the
doctors here(New Zealand) don't seem to know much about it. Can anyone tell me more, if so please e-mail me, thank you

Diane, please email me. There is an EDS/HMS support group in New Zealand.
