I don't know when the change was - somewhere between *counts it out* 1987ish and 2001.
Yeah - I think having exercises to build up my tendon strength on elbows might have been a good plan! I think it was recommended that I worked on strength when better, but obviously I had better things to do ;) I have stopped showing off my bendy elbows at parties though, since an incident with a fellow bendy when drunk where we both managed to crick our necks at the same time by seeing who could contort the most...
I did have physio on my also hyperflexive legs, which did help a lot (no injury). I think they thought having straight arms wasn't so important as not falling flat on my face fairly regularly.
