So I have been experiencing intense joint pain ... neck, shoulders, back, the chicken wing things in the back, elbows, wrists, hips, knees and even toes and fingers ... to the point where it's hard to sleep, get up at least every hour and maybe more, time moves so slowly at night in pain ... low grade fevers have been common ... find the pain increases while idle ... advil doesn't help all that much and eat it like candy ... moving around does help a lot.

Dr. tested blood for a variety of things including thyroid, myalgia, low iron etc. ... and tests came back normal ... asked him to check for lymes, so he did do that but won't find out until Thursday.

I don't want to wait for this guy to get the puzzle figured out as it's painful every day, but again always feel better while in movement.

I have had three therapeutic massages and one chiropractor visit this past week ... and have been stretching as much as possible ... it helps a fair amount, but come night, it's as if nothing was done. The lady doing the massages says my muscles are tighter than a piano wire.

As background, I started working with a personal trainer on March 17 - weights/muscle type stuff Monday nights and cardio Thursday mornings early. The first two weeks, i experienced some muscle pain, but never anything like what I have been experiencing now ... as the muscles still hurt and are not getting better. Night of March 29 - my daughter and I slept on an inflatable mattress in the living room - sort of like a camp out, not a good move as it was kind of the start of all the pain, but nothing as intense as I have been experiencing for the past week - week-and-a-half.

My doctor said it could just be my body reacting to a new exercise regime, but the pain is too continual and too long for that, it may have triggered something but would love any insights if someone has seen anything or experienced something similar ... too young to be acting like a 95-year-old arthritic person.

Thanks
