Just following on from my last post to you, mixed connective is an overall term, The Ehlers-Danlos syndromes (EDS) are a group of thirteen individual genetic conditions, all of which affect the body’s connective tissue. Connective tissue lies between other tissues and organs, keeping these separate whilst connecting them, holding everything in place and providing support, like the mortar between bricks.
I hope this is useful for you, if you repost on the 'living with arthritis' forum, hopefully you will have some responses from other forum members with regards their experiences.
Best wishes
