Diagnosing Hypermobility Syndrome/EDS

How did you go about being diagnosed with hypermobility syndrome/EDS? Seeing a specialist? I don’t think my PCP would be able to do anything helpful but I don’t know where to start.

I had originally gone through rheumatology, which I know is successful for some people, but for me I couldn't find anyone who was super knowledgeable on hypermobility disorders. So I got a referral to a geneticist; hopefully I'll be able to get some answers there!

  @goblin49 Thank you! I’m worried I won’t be taken seriously since I haven’t had any dislocations - but I have long-standing multi-joint pain and some possibly related diagnoses, and would love a diagnosis/answers.
