The happiest moment I've had in a long while...

My doctor finally got back to me!

My test results are normal and the likely cause of my joint pain is hypermobility of my joints (I was born that way, can't be fixed) and a slight vitamin D deficiency.

So what now? I need to continue taking my vitamin D supplements, try to move around more, and find an NSAID pain reliever that works well for managing what will likely be chronic pain. All in all, it's great news since they were suspecting a connective tissue disorder. My doc wants me to have a follow-up in December (I don't know why) but I doubt I'll be seeing her again.


No, I'm not really that flexible, though I'm sure if I tried I could be. My hands and ankles can hyperextend, though, which sucks since I'm prone to hurting my ankles. /clumsy

Also, this picture is really funny and totally relevant. 



Stay safe,
