Trying to be prepared.

I am trying to be prepared to communicate my symptoms of possible hEDS. My doctor told me to go to genetic testing to get tested. I have hyper mobility but I don’t know what’s hyper mobile and what’s not. I am just so use to the way I sit stand walk and move. Idk what’s not normal. Also my doctor pointed out my scars and easy bruises as indicators to get tested. I don’t know anything about scars but I know I get new ones randomly all the time just for the tiniest of cuts. I was wondering if anyone can help tell me if these scars look like something I should even bring up in my appointment. I don’t want to be dismissed because I bring up to many symptoms that aren’t actually symptoms. Doctors rarely take me seriously about pain, GI issues, mobility problems and other stuff. I was diagnosed with PCOS well over 10 years ago and now that’s the only thing doctors say is my issues until my most recent new pcp.
