Can someone please help diagnose my medical problem, I hurt everywhere!

Alcohol Withdrawls

No, the only thing I use is an inhaler and supplements.

Any visible signs of small blood vessel rupture, back of the calves etc?

I had pain before I started drinking. I guess I am self medicating.

No.

(Probably not helping anything though)

You are just a typical fat, lazy 'merican. Go watch some yoga videos on Youtube and thank me in a week.

used to jave severe stomach problems couldnt eat bad cramps and pain shakyness i was fuxkwd up doc was giving me meds thar heloed a lil and one day i ran out of meds it was the forth of July and couldnt get a refill . i watched this movie called forks over knives and they talked about plant based diet and how it can cure many ailments by giving your body the nutrition to heal itself. With nothing to lose i tryed it that day and to my surprize it was the first day i didnt have pain. Kept it up for five months and never had a stomach problem again.

Hey Op.

Are you feeling sorry for yourself?

Maybe you need to go and do youself real pain. Maybe the pain is just in your head?

Go and do a really thorough physical work-out. Do a serious weight session in the gym. Learn to feel realy pain, and de-sensitise yourself from this faux pain.

I'm being serious here and not a dick. It worked for me. And you sleep great after a serious work out too. And when you feel the burn/pain you know why and arent freaked out by it. Youll find you no longer feel that former faux pain.

It is your body yearning for you to do some activity.

Thanks. :)

Hey, I've had similar symptoms, and I can tell you a few things that helped:

- Siberian Eleuthero helped the fatigue, and the pain to a degree (only taken in the AM, can be stimulating). Nature's Way brand is what I take.

- Foam Rolling. Sounds crazy, but it works for me! I have some equipment I got from the local sporting goods store. Works a treat. Recently bought a Tiger Tail to add the my collection - good for when I when I want to roll whilst hanging out, ect. It just takes a few minutes.

- Theracane. Same concept as rolling, but gets to the trigger points, where knots are. Better to use lightly/little at first, then work up. I don't use it above my neck - I did that once, with enthusiasm, and it messed me up for a few days (think I pinched a nerve). Works quite well for me, otherwise.

- If I'm sitting a while, I'll get up and get some blood flowing. Just doing this and that, or even doing a quick walk or something like that.

- In line with the last tip, if I'm in front of a screen too long I find it depleting. Gotta take breaks to refresh body and mind.

Keep your B-12 and Vit.D topped up. I suffered a deficiency in both, and in reference to the B-12, specifically, it was really bad.

Keep looking to see what's going on, and all the best to you.


P.S. A small study found something like 40% of people, in that study, that were diagnosed with fibromyalgia, actually had neuropathy, iirc.

You definitely have autoimmune issues going on...I also have lupus, fibromyalgia and a long list of things and it really does sound like lupus to me. You can have lupus even if the blood work is normal, or you are male or you are white. You need to find a rheumatologist who will actually listen to you and help you. Praying you get some answers!!

To anyone who has said that I'm lazy, I am not. My job is very physical and I still do yard work etc. but it just hurts so much I have to keep resting.

I used to be very active and served in the military.

Would you say the muscle tightness you feel causes any restriction to the movement of arms etc.

The rheumatologist said she couldn't find anything wrong. ???

If you are in pain and cannot get it stopped, you should see a doctor.

If it is an emergency, either get a ride to the emergency room or call for an ambulance.

To hurt and ache constantly is not normal and may suggest a more serious underlying condition.

I am not a doctor.

You should see a doctor as soon as possible.

Take care and get well my friend.

It feels like everything is so tight. I get fatigued so easy too, I do something small and it feels like I just ran a marathon.

I have good days and bad.

See a different one!!!

I wish I knew who to see for this, every time I go to the doctor and get tests it cost more and more money.

Yep...sounds like lupus and/or fibromyalgia...you NEED to get a definitive diagnosis...not to scare or worry you more, but lupus can attack your organs and be fatal if left untreated.

fibromyalgia

Is there a test I should insist on?

Amen!! And I don't have health insurance anymore :(

I am guessing that your liver is struggling. The symptoms are amplified because you are active and so processing more calories, which taxes your liver even more because you are simply revving your whole engine more. Recommend tapering alcohol, injesting as few synthetics as possible. After alcahol is cut out, if you don't sfind relief then get full blood work done.

Did you have mononucleosis before these symptoms started?

For fibromyalgia, ask the rheumatologist to do the "point test"...if you have it, certain pressure points will hurt very bad just by touching them...for lupus, write down every single symptom you have and get them to listen. Do you get worn out just from taking a shower, ever get skin rashes or are you losing any hair?

Mono what now?

Thanks, I will look into that!

Also, do you have trouble remembering things or trouble with your balance?

Battery is about dead...good luck op! Praying for you!!
