Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome is a relatively rare connective tissue - collagen disorder that's inherited.
There are a number of different types and the most serious affects the blood vessels. Some types affect your joints and skin and the resulting arthritis pain can be debilitating.
When you're diagnosed with it you require regular follow-up care.
