HYPERMOBILITY AND AUTISM

Does anyone know about Hypermobility and Autism? There is nothing on this site, yet it is mentioned elsewhere on the internet. Apparently they often go together. I am hypermobile but didn't realise until today that they could be connected...

Also autism can effect pain perception. It’s possible autistic people can tolerate more joint strain and stretching than most people.

Probably not linked. I am a total wimp when it comes to pain and I was hypermobile as a child (probably still am technically but I got chronic arthritis around 20 so I am not very mobile any more).
