My apologies for resurrecting an old thread. I joined this forum just because of this thread. I'm in the process of contacting a medical geneticist in my area to see whether or not I have any genetic connective tissue disorder, like EDS. I've went from athletic to side-lined because of numerous joint injuries that simply refuse to heal. I'm scared shitless because I desire to become a strength and conditioning coach, but I can't see it happening if the rest of my life is an uphill battle against joint degradation.

Dufresne, how are you doing now? Have you repeated more var cycles since then? I'm wishing all is well, as your thread gave me a bit of hope.
