Struggling with Undiagnosed Genetic Disorder

I've had worsening symptoms my entire life, but haven't been able to see a genetic doctor yet bc the clinic she works at here doesn't accept patients with a history of addiction problems. my doctor diagnosed me tentatively with EDS but she's worried I might have marfans syndrome bc of my height.

Mine was diagnosed in the rheumatology clinic at children's hospital, not sure where you live or if you have access to a rheumatologist but sometimes they do refer adults over to a children's hospital because of how many things they specialize in.
