    Look into Ehlers - Danlos Syndrome, a connective tissue disorder. Sufferers describe similar symptoms.

      Yes, my mother has this and this constantly happens. I also had it a few times. Not a good time.

      Doctors don’t know this syndrome often, how do you know it if I may ask?

        I have it, the hypermobile type (hEDS)

        Upside: reduced likelihood of osteoarthritis

        Downside: all the pain, doctors think you’re crazy

          Thank you for sharing. I think I might have some symptoms, but definitely not all. The knees though :x

          Do you manage without pain meds? My mom cannot unfortunately.
