We learn something new every day. This is a community dedicated to informing each other and helping to spread knowledge.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rule 1- All posts must begin with TIL. Linking to a source of info is optional, but highly recommended as it helps to spark discussion.
** Posts must be about an actual fact that you have learned, but it doesn't matter if you learned it today. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.**
Rule 2- Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding non-TIL posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-TIL posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Sorry, op. I'm locking this thread, the discussion is getting too ugly for individualized moderation.
Fuck. My autistic self has enough problems already and recently I get all gender-questioning while hugging my Blåhaj (still comfortably cis by day though). Seeing articles that imply I am "at risk" of being queer does not help: I don't want to go through the phase of finding out and potentially having to tackle the choices and processes involved before I sort out my ADHD-like symptoms. Trans folk REALLY is brave to have picked the fight against all the social norms. Should I unsubscribe from 196 to hopefully reduce the temptation to find out? Yes, I'm a bit of a coward.

RCCX!
The entire cluster (ADHD/Hypermobility/Autoimmune/MCAS/etc) is theorised to originate there.
That guy bothers me, I don't think medical professionals should cultivate personality cults. Then again I don't really think politicians should either, and that's basically the definition of politics.
Who cares about that guy just using him to point out the cluster has been spotted independently.
What repoir does the wiki have? It seems well written enough, but I don't trust these kinds of things unless a person with something to lose backs them.
Ok this is super interesting. I’ll have to read more about this. Thanks.
There was an interesting NatGeo article recently about something similar - the links between hypermobility, GI issues, long COVID and long COVID-like illnesses like MECFS, MCAS, etc. The links you provided are really fascinating and suggest maybe even a larger clustering of symptoms unified in a single genetic process.
