Do I Have Arthritis? Posted: 03-10-06 09:43am
Hi, I am a 23 year old male. I cannot
figure out what is wrong with me, and
think it is probably arthritis. It
started about a month ago, one of my knees
hurt for a few days, then stopped. A day
or two later my other knee did the same
thing. Then my shoulder started hurting,
and has continued to hurt for about a week
now. This morning I woke up, and my
other shoulder hurts too. It hurts real
real bad. If I hold my arms by my side,
it does not hurt, but if I try to raise
them the pain in my shoulders are
unbearable.
Also, I have been really tired lately, and
have been getting really bad headaches.
I also seem to have a mild fever
occasionally. And I even feel a bit
dizzy or disoriented at times, especially
in the mornings.
Can anyone help me? I am very confused,
and very angry about this. When I raise
my arm up, the pain in my shoulder almost
makes me want to cry.
