hEDS diagnosis

I'm wondering one goes to get an EDS diagnosis. I have many of the features, and my PCP agrees it's worth looking into. I cannot find a specialist at UNC, but I'm willing to go through Duke or any other hospital system that can help. I feel really silly bending my fingers backwards and contorting my legs into pretzels to "prove" to doctors I'm hypermobile, and would love to have the diagnosis verified. (Or not, maybe I'm wrong, but it sure would be great to know.)

It's frustrating to live around so many medical practices and specialists, but still not be able to find what I need.

Found in Orange County NC, just outside my backyard. We live near a wooded area and have seen possums around, and smelled skunk. There are also outdoor domestic cats, but this looks too big to be a cat to me. Approx 5 inches total length. I've lived here three years and never seen anything like this before.
