I'm a massage therapist and have worked with many fibro p/t's. These are actually very common symptoms due to the nature of it being a degeneritive muscular disease.

I'm no medical expert, but it sounds to me like you have Fibromyalgia. Look it up on different web sites. Pain is widespread and chronic. Do you also have sleep issues? Patients with fibromyalgia often have insomnia or restless sleep. Does your pain worsen with cold weather or when it rains? This would be due to swelling of the myofascial tissue surronding the muscles. Do you wake up feeling very stiff with pain and it takes awhile before you can work the stiffness out? These are all symptoms of this condition. But of course you should seek medical attention for a diagnosis. Good Luck, Laura

if the doctors are baffled, I don't have a clue. All I can think of is a thick band of pinched nerves for the pain in hands, feet, etc.

Have you ever been tested for Hep C. Sometimes it's not noticed for years. It's not a regular thing a Dr. will test for. You may ask. The symptoms that your having sounds like it.

Have you tried a chiropractor? It could be that something is out of whack and the chriopractor can get it all realigned.
Massage therapy might help, too.
Hope you find the help you need -
Blessed be,

Hey I've had a few of these symptoms... and i think this would be due to anemia or malnutrition. Sure you eat well n stuff, but its important for the food to be absorbed and also moderated. I would recommend you to have a tall glass of milk daily and go vegetarian!

Ask your Doc to check you out for peripheral artery disease (PAD). Like coronary artery disease, you could have atherosclerosis (lesions, atheroma, thrombi) in your peripheral arteries. The diseased vessels prevent adequate perfusion (blood flow to) of the tissue they are supposed to nourish.
