Initially it was just 1. But they added around 4-5 that were related to the initial referred condition throughout the MEB process.

Wait a couple days. A PEBLO should reach out to you shortly. It sometimes takes a bit for the files to get to them, and there are only 2 PEBLOs for all of Ft Jackson. If you haven’t heard anything in about a week, reach back out here. I can shoot you the info for the administrative assistant in...

I’ve attached the diagnostic criteria here. All other types of EDS can be confirmed with genetic testing. However, hEDS cannot be. That being said, I’d feel much better ruling out the other forms. I do have autoimmune hives and valve regurgitation (both diagnosed) which all “fit” within the EDS...
