I'm currently being tested for several issues. I've had severe leg and arm pain (muscles or bones?) I have low vitamin D and cortisol (Celiac Syndrome?) Maybe some osteo? I have a bone scan on the 10th. I had an ultrasound, they found 1 uterine fibroid and several cysts on my right ovary. I have very low hormone levels and may be going thru menopause? Some other symptoms: urine takes awhile, is frequent, stools float, rash on arms, weight gain, severe leg and arm pain, dizziness. Already have painful neuropathy in feet, legs and hands (the pain in legs and arms is an ache, not from neuropathy). I drink 60 oz water, 110 gm protein, 45 carbs, 950 calories. Not exercised lately, when I do I gain more weight. Blood sugar ok, blood pressure on the high side. Fatiqued. don't have fibro. Seeing rheumotologist (no RA), pcp, neurologist. Getting tests. Take 120 mg cymbalta, 300 mg lyrica, 30 gm morphine sul slowact, 15gm ms daily. HELP

Why are you on all those drugs? Why are you seeing a rheumatologist but without the disease. You are utterly self-absorbed and right now, your focus seems to be on the physical end of it. Contrary to what you say, exercise does not cause people to gain weight, unless it causes them to have increased appetite and eat more. Contact your regular psychiatrist and make an appointment to discuss all your troubles, and maybe some adjustment of your medications.

Just keep eating healthy and exercising. When you exercise you gain muscle so maybe that's why it causes you to gain weight?
It could be PCOS = Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome. Look it up and see if the side effects are what you are having. If not that, maybe it's a thyroid problem. Or your medicine could also be causing you to gain weight, see if it says on the label what it side effects are. You should eat/drink more dairy if you don't already, it's great for bones and stuff.
How old are you by the way? As you get older, your horomone levels naturally go down. So that may not be a bad thing, if your of age. If you get fatigued when you exercise that's normal, but if you get it like during the day, doesn't sound normal.
hope everything gets better for you, just don't give up!

man, I'm sorry, have you tried a naturopath or an osteopath? They might have some different insight if you've been going to traditional doctors and they're stumped. Sorry
