What is Elher-Danlos Syndrome? I've heard that an Italian friend has it but we don't have sufficient common language for me to find out what it is & I can't find a description on the internet. Thank you.
EDS, also known as cutis hyperelastica (elastic skin), is a group of rare genetic disorders caused by a defect in collagen synthesis. The syndrome is named after two doctors, Edward Ehlers of Denmark, and Henri-Alexandre Danlos of France, who identified it at the turn of the 20th century.

Is there anyone out there that has experience with Ehler-Danlos Syndrome hypermobility that I could start a conversation with?
