Common characteriscts (can't spell)

[SophieeBabessxo]

I was just wondering if people with EDS share characteriscts.
If so, what are they?

What do you mean by characteristics? Like, personality or facial looks?

Even with my mom and I, we have different joint stuff. My hands are waaaaaay bendier than hers, but her hips pop a LOT.

What kinds of characteristics do you mean?

[SophieeBabessxo]

Mainly looks and build

[Katherine]

apparently vascular eds have specific facial features and characteristics altho i have this i dont have many of them :s

[SophieeBabessxo]

Really? What are they?

[Katherine]

Facial features are often said to be large eyes, small chin, thin nose and lips and lobeless ears. I do have pretty big eyes I guess?

Also having a slim build, with thin, pale, translucent skin with veins visable on the chest and abdomen. I am quite slim and my skin is quite see-thru, in the winter when I dont have a tan, you can see the veins on my chest more but you cant see them on my abdomen..

[SophieeBabessxo]

Whoaa, i have big eyes, small build, and really pale skin.

I think some symptoms can interlink with the other types of EDS

[SophieeBabessxo]

i reckon, cause i'm definatly the smallest out of all my friends

[Katherine]

me too!
