You have me intrigued!! My orthopedic surgeon has often tested my ANA for lupus because of my joint problems, but nothing came back. I googled Ehlers Danlos and found that I have a large number of those symptoms. And terrible joints!! My 32 year old hands match my 81 year old grandma's - knobby knuckles and papery skin. I am going to mention ED to my dr next time. I have a Hiatle Hernia, major osteo arthritis in my fingers and feet, hard lumps under the skin on my feet in the arch, and I alternate C to D with my ibs.
Please keep us informed!! I'll be interested in what you find out.
Sorry, can't help with diet tips though - I'm following the EFI diet as closely as possible, but I was able to reintroduce gluten and wheat products after coming up clear for Celiac.
Good luck and hugs!
