General Health Care - November 2006

When I wake up, and through some parts of the day my hands, fingers, ankles, neck, face, jaws, and mouth become stiff, and swollen. It seams this happens after I rest or slow down from some sort of activity. I was on a medication for schizophrenia which caused stiffness but have been off of it for 6 months now. I've been to several doctors, and have had bloodwork and test done and they cannot find anything. I know something is definately up because this condition is getting worse.

i need to have a description of the worst kind of pain that someone could possibly feel; preferably referring to the eye, but not necessarily.

Thanks in advance for the awesome advice! I often forget to eat because I am not hungry. When I do eat, it is because I realize I have a headache (in the past I would got headaches when I did not eat or ate later than normal). Even then, I am not hungry and it is hard to eat even small amounts. What could be happening? I have never had a problem with the way I look or my weight or anything. I am super busy. I am a little underweight...not much 5'4" and 110 lbs (that is what the doctor said last time I was in there 6 mos ago). I know I am not pregnate. Any advice on what could be happening is welcomed. Any advice on what to do to become hungry again is welcome too. I should mention...I don't have much of a sex drive either, but I am not depressed or anything.

I don't do drugs, smoke, or drink. I take multi-vitamins, vitamin B100, and iron pills. My diet is a little insufficient, but I eat foods rich in potassium.

I'm really worried about my mom (awww yea I know lol anyways…) cuz she is having bad pain in her hands and feet like they are burning. She said she felt better after she massaged one foot but doesn't have the strength to massage the other. But she can still walk and grab things normally. She has a small fever too. She started to hurt about two days ago while shopping with her friends. Thanks for your help

I really just dislike sleeping.

I feel like it's a waste of time, I'd rather be doing something more productive.

I never feel tired when I decide to sleep, so I feel like I'm forcing myself to do it.

Which puts me in a bad mood when I wake up.

Which I also dislike.

I had sprained my ankle years ago and have developed a lump at the top of my ankle which is now causing pain. I have spoke to a surgeon and they had said that they will drain this lump. He had given me a medical term for the lump but cannot remember the name. Anyone know the name of this condition or were to find information about it?

My husband slammed his knee into the side of my calf full force tonight (accident of course) It kind of swelled up and mild brusing, but my problem is I can't move my foot. I cant point my toes or extend it the other way. Does any one know what might cause this or what I can do to fix it? Walking is very hard to do and very painful, any help would be great!
