Since August I have undergone several episodes where I have pain in the joints of knee and hips and run a fever between 99.5-100 F
When it first began, it was only my left hip and knee. I took advil for two days and it went away. Then a month later it occurred again, this time the pain was severe and again only in my left hip and knee. I was seen by a doctor who gave me daypro and sent me home. It worked for another few weeks. Then I had something else develop facial pain, this brought me to the ER where blood tests were run. My platelets were 65, the doctor diagnosed me with something called Tic Delereaux (sp?). He put me on Tegretol and Prednisone. The treatment worked wonderfully and I had no pain anywhere. I finished the Prednisone last week.
Then suddenly Sunday morning I woke up with bilateral knee, hip and Right shoulder pain. The pain in the shoulder is kind of weird location it is around the clavicle area. Again I have fever.
