I know I'm hyper-mobile, but have never been formally diagnosed as JHS.
I read an article last night which finally connected many dots for me.
I'm 99% certain I have JHS. I could reel off symptoms until tomorrow.
What do I do? Besides getting a formal diagnosis, can I access any other help from the NHS?
One of my thumb joints is becoming unusable, one of my knees feels like it's collapsing and I know there is no cartilage left behind the kneecap. (That's beside all of the other issues - I've arthritis in multiple joints and am in constant pain.)
Is anyone able to get physiotherapy via the NHS at the moment? (I was offered the choice of having a steroid injection or an MRI on my knee in December - I chose the MRI, from the physios.)
Has anyone had a successful PIP application?
Sorry to ask lots of questions. The penny has finally dropped for me and I'm feeling quite down about it.
I recognise that going part time at work might help, but don't think I can afford it without some financial help.
