    Hi darling, I am sure it worries you. Are you Hypermobile by any chance, can you do things like bend you thumb to your forearm, bend your, little finger backwards with knees straight put your hands flat on the ground? If you can look up the Beighton scale and see what else you can do?

    Hi are you double jointed look up the Beighton Scale? If you are it might well be related to that. If not do you have a low BP? Are your periods normal? Or have you been trying to lose weight!

    How did you get on Jermaine? I hope your GP was helpful in reassuring you, the problem it seems, is lack of awareness of Hypermobility, Syncope, presyncope and Dysautomnia with the medical community at the moment. Have you joined the POTS and stars groups yet?
