My doctor isn't quite sure what to call what I have. There's a list of specific joint ranges of motion where it's officially Ehlers Danlos if you've got more than a certain number of those, and I don't, but I do have really extremely wide range of motion in a bunch of joints that the test doesn't measure. I've also got minor skin involvement and mitral valve prolapse, which pretty much all adds up to not fitting neatly into any diagnosis.
There's also some debate among doctors about whether Hypermobility Syndrome and Ehlers Danlos Syndrome - Hypermobility Type are actually the same thing or not, and the classifications have changed several times, and so what I have really depends on what doctor is examining me at the time.
Wow. Good luck and health luck~ma, Hil.
I can understand how this must be very frustrating to you.
Lots of posts!
{{Erin}} I'm sorry. I don't know what these people expect. Awesome job~ma vibes.
And wedding ~ma for Kristin & Drew.
And now I am off again to eat.
Oh, and what I thought a few days ago might be a wisdom tooth coming in? Definitely a wisdom tooth coming in. Hard to tell for sure yet, but it seems to be crooked. I really hope it doesn't have to be removed.
Hil, just don't get my DH's mutant teeth. 5 roots on the last root canal.
Futless day here. I've done a bit, but nothign that seems to equal the energy I have.

I was perfectly happy with the mutant teeth I already had -- only two wisdom teeth, and both of them grew in fine and didn't need to be removed.
So, I keep emailing my advisor, trying to schedule a meeting for the next day or the day after, and he hasn't responded to any of them. Not even a "I can't meet with you then" response. This has been three emails over a bit more than a week. I'm trying to write an email asking what's going on, but every time I try for polite, I end up at passive-aggressive. Any suggestions on wording?
Dear advisor,
I have a number of deadlines to meet and questions to ask. Please advise as to your availability. I can be flexible. ( Pun intended )
Actually, do you have a phone number? I might cal and leave a message -- some thing like you are concerned, you have left him a number of emails and you haven't heard from him and you are worried.
Hil, can't you give him a call? I would.
The only phone number I have for him is his office number, and he's almost never there. I've tried several times this week stopping by his office, and he wasn't there any of those times.
