Joint hypermobility disorders :

left handed correlation? - - Posted by scubadeco (scubadeco), 27 May 2003

With all the signs/symptoms that everyone has listed (really made me think as many things I forgot about that I also have) recently I was wondering how many others are also left handed?

Hey Rob,
I am a righty and right footed (or in the snowboarding world Naturla (a left footer is called Goofy ).
But my Mum was a lefty (she is who I got EDS from), my brother is a Lefty (he has EDS as well, not as bad as I do),
My sister is a Righty but eats Left.

Hey rob~

I'm a lefty! ........in most parts.  Im actually a little of both.  I write and throw with my left hand but kick with my right, i bat right in softball, and i shoot right in hockey.  so i guess im not an all out lefty who is hypermobile!!
