Asking my doctor about hyper-mobility

Going to be asking my doctor about hyper-mobility tomorrow. I was told years ago that I had loose joints because of how much my knees hyperextend without support. Should be interesting to see what he has to say.

I looked it up, my pinkies don't do 90°, I know my knees will, I know my elbows bend extra, but don't know by how much. And it's been a while since I've tried to touch the floor with my palms. I'll have to try that. Thank you so much for the info
