Suspecting EDS: Seeking Input

hey there! i'm suspecting i have EDS, the hypermobility type. ive had severe knee pain for years on end, since I was around 7, and almost all of my joints are hypermobile. sometimes i wake up and find that something was dislocated in my sleep, and i have to frequently relocate those joints - most commonly my lower right ribs. i don't exactly know if this is EDS, but i have a close friend with the condition who says it sounds very similar to it, so i wanted other people's input. i cant see a doctor until this october,
