I don't know what is wrong and my doctor is being slow and messing around with me.
I have always had m.e aka chronic fatigue syndrome but i then started (over the past two years) developing hip pain which was worse in the night and mornings. Then it started in my knees and had to and continue to this day to have a pillow between my legs in bed. I also started to notice my balance was awful and had to hold onto someone if i went out and about plus i was getting intense vertigo at the slightest thing. Right now the pain in my knees and arms are horrible, i need help being lifted out of chairs and the toilet because i just cannot stand and it feels as if i have had my knees smashed with a hammer. The area around my knee towards the top is very tender when pressure is applied. With my arms sometimes i cannot lift them outwards because of the pain on both arms in the same spot which is the upper mid area on the outsides. Sometimes i get muscle twitches and shooting pains normally in my arms and numb feelings like my arms are not even there. I have noticed my memory has gone downhill and didn't even know what the pizza menu was called last night i was calling it a paper thingy.
I also have bipolar disorder and find my pain is better when my mood is high but when it balances or goes low i really suffer with all this.
What do you think? Thanks Amy UK p.s sometimes i ave flu like aches all over.
