Anyone Here With Joint Hypermobility Syndrome?

A MyChronicPainTeam Member asked a question 💭

6 years ago I started to have symptoms of Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome 3. I never was diagnosed duento lack of a geneticist in my area. I saw a rheumatologist who diagnosed me with Joint Hypermobility Syndrome, possible Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome.

Yesterday, I went to take a shower, and fainted. I’ve never had this happen. I went to the ER (because I also hit my head and have an awful headache), and they gave me a migraine cocktail and did a bunch of tests. All the tests came back fine.

I have had a spell where I fainted alot. This is embarrassing to say but we have to be honest. About 20 years ago, basically when I was getting sick but had no idea, I was on hydrocodone 10 mg. It was a hot day and had stopped by a store. I felt queasy and went outside and sat down thank God bc asa I sat I passed out. My boyfriend came running out and when I sat up I saw that I had peed all over the sidewalk.....OMG...SO EMBARRASSING. After that I passed out 2 times at work. Saw a cardiologist after ER , and wore a device that I was supposed to be squeezing when i.felt faint. It never happened again. TG. Yet I feel icky sometime like I am going to faint. For me, lime usual diagnose myself. So for me. Heat, meds (& alot of them) make me feel sick. So far 20 years later I'm still kicking!😁, good luck to you and keep a watch on your Blood pressure. Happy as can be, for the holidays!
