Joint Hypermobility Syndrome May Be Missed in Primary Care Experts highlight the role of primary care in identifying joint hypermobility syndrome and distinguishing it from connective tissue disorders.

My laptop keyboard is no longer usable, so at home I've been using a tiny remote keyboard, and it's definitely not been good for my posture and arm pain. Today I picked up my new ergonomic keyboard and mouse - SO much better. #Hypermobility
