Q: All over body pain

the past year or two now i have been having horrible pains that never seem to stay in one place, i can get it one day in my joints, either finger, elbows or wrists mainly, but can get it in hips and collar bones, i get it in what feels to me like my bones, feels like a dull but very severe stabbing pain, almost like being stabbed in the bone with a blunt knife, im getting it right this minute and its in the back of my left arm, top half, and the pain is as i described, but sometimes this pain can feel like someone has a very tight grasp aound the area, it also feels sometimes like its a pain in the muscles! i have had total numbness in patches on my arms which is abit strange to me, but i was wondering if anyone out there could maybe point me n the right direction, my doc put me on diclofenic but i didnt wanna take it as iv not heard good things, hope someone can provide some insight thanks alot xxx

Certain foods can cause inflammation which leads to pain...have you tried an anti-inflammatory diet?

Hey, that sounds like a more sever case of my problem ( http://ehealthforum.com/health/joint-and-t endon-pain-t172798.html ).

I've changed my diet (starting from the 1st of March)... and it all seems to be clearing up now Very Happy

I think it may have been to do with chondroitin. Are there any supplements or anything you take? Or any kind of food that you eat a lot of (at least once every two/three days).

I think my problem may have been to many purines in my food but not 100% sure.

Kind regards,
Scott

hiya hun, to be honest the only real thing i eat alot of, or maybe too much of is sweets!!! big kid when it comes to my sweeties haha but real food no i never eat the same thing more than maybe twice a week, and the only regular medication i take is my contraceptive pill and that was changed about 2 weeks ago and symptoms havent changed, however, i had blood tests done, and quite a few!! the results came bk that im aneamic, which i cant understand as this keeps comin bk, i eat all the things you should eat to put right this vit b12 deficiency but it just wont leave me alone, i have never heard of aneamia causin such pains though, or does it???? and why do i keep gettin the aneamia?????? i cant win lol xxx
