I have same symptoms
I came up positive for Lyme on igenex test but negative on other teats for Lyme
A very controversial disease
I'm still trying to figure out what is the exact cause
I'm also on a candida protocol so maybe I am detoxing (I been feeling worse lately especially in the morning)
Way to dismiss a young person's observations. Maybe part of it is growing pains, although I don't remember feeling that way. There was an excellent helpful point about exercise, and that didn't get acknowledged at all.
It comes from eating too much processed and fast food, drinking soda or not drinking enough water, and not getting suffiicent nutrition. Hormonal imbalance can also be a factor but it shouldn't be at 38.
Fibromalagia test is definite. Blood test is called FM/a to test it or other older tests. Test is new so check with your insurance company if covered or not. You have all signs of this but check it out to make sure. Epsom Salts helps in bathtub and over the counter analgesics. Naprosin perscribed helps. Check computer for Alternative Therapy. Increase greens for increase in immune system. This is an auto immune problem which means that your body is fighting itself. Go GET SOME WHEATGRASS JUICE AT SOME OF THE LOCAL GYMS WHICH INCREASE IMMUNE SYSTEM AND FIGHTS OFF INFECTIONS ATTACKING BODY. READ IN COMPUTER, 40 BENEFITS OF WHEATGRASS JUICE. TAKE VIT. D WHICH MANY PEOPLE HAVE DEFICIENCY OF. CHECK THYROID OUT, MAY BE LOW. ALSO VIT. D MAY BE LOW. CHECK IT OUT WITH BLOOD TEST.
ALSO DEHYDRATION perhaps. Check out kegandemo.com. This filter makes water alkaline not acidic. Water Molecules are normally acidic and cannot absorb into the cells. When we make this water alkaline, water molecules are smaller and thus our cells can absorb the water. This is a Live Video about water and explains this. It is fantastic!
Try replacing your electrolyte imbalances with Pickle Juice which has salt in it after a workout. Just read article from Internet on Pickle Juice. Check it out.
Good Luck. Try these home remedies. Epson Salts work best and lots of water. Add Himalyan Salt to water to keep water in body during hot months. Electrolyte Balance. Potassium and WATER SHIFTS IN body and muscles. I am an RN, BSN.
doctors are not to be trusted. they dont do anything but give you drugs that makes you more sick. go find a chiropractor or acupuncture. eastern meds are the best meds. dont take american drugs they do nothing but screw you up.

Seriously...if there are this many people with this problem, don't you think someone should be researching it? I've had this problem now for over two years. I can't even work anymore. It's horrible.
my tendon pain is killing me what should i do in order to get rid of it please help me
I have experienced almost all of the symptoms each one of you have had. Just hear me out...about 1.5 years ago at 30 years old I was at my breaking point...I could not take the pain, depression, anxiety, being sluggish, overly exhausted...and each day for years crying in the shower because I did not feel "well". Dr. after Dr. said I was fine, all my blood test etc.came back normal. Then my blood test started to read SEVERLY low B12 and D3. (Which I have read from many of you.) Shortly before all of this I was diagnosed with PCOS. Well, sad to say, one day in November 2011 I had a full out break down, I mean crying uncontrolably, anxiety and panic attack...you name it I swear for that hour of my life it was happening. In short they made me go to a psychologist to be evaluated. During the evaluation they decided that they needed to do genetic testing on me because of the severe depression, low b12 etc. that ran in almost all of the women on my mothers side of the family. Well that testing came back...i think 5-7 days later....they found my issue....I have MTHFR C677T. This is a genetic defect that has been handed down from generation to generation in my family. Now you might ask...how could this even be a possibility for you? If I remember correctly. .this MTHFR gene defect (there are different types) is carried by almost 70% of the population. I know this sounds crazy but some people that have this they might never have symptoms. So once my testing came back I was placed on a higher mg antidepresent plus 15 mg...not mcg of deplin. This defect causes your body to NOT process out toxins correctly or process certain things in your body properly. To give you an example...my mother was tested for MTHFR and she came back positive for multiple gene defects. The Drs. said I saved my mothers life. Her health problems were as follows: heart valve issues, thyroid issues, doctors thinking she has M.S., RLS, fybro, chronic abdomenal pain...the list goes on and on. But to find out all of her issues link to the MTHFR. Once she was put onto her medications she started to feel better the abdomenal pain stopped and her fatigue-aching-I can't get out of bed- not feeling "well" all started to subside. There is not a cure all or even a cure for this awful genetic flaw. But the medicines help to ease the issues and make you body process things in and out properly. All I ask is that if you decide to ask for this testing. ...please, please, read up on MTHFR because most Doctors are NOT familiar with this or at least the ones I go to do (did) not know what I was talkiing about. If this helps at least one person...it makes me feel better. I know the chronic pain and issues that come with this, and you are not alone. My personal mission is to bring awareness to people and Drs. about MTHR since there is so little known about it in society. If you do get tested and are a carrier please share with me..I am interested to see how this effects each person differently. Best of luck!
Hi Bob
I know just how you feel , I also have spinal stenosis L4/L5 but may be that is not the reason just a common denominator , for me the tendons feel tight like the strings on a guitar , they seem to get tighter as the years go by .....have a look at trigger points and muscular myalgia , doesn't really matter what you call it ....its a pain ....and very debilitating for something that seams to lack any rhyme or reason , my legs started with very tight calf muscles , and prevented me from any real form of exercise , then progressed to tight hamstrings ....I have always had a problem with my back from 23 ...now at 55 , I am always searching for clues ....I mean you just get a bit depressed when your body seems to hurt so much , and the doc says ....he doesn't have any answers, for me the pain comes and goes in normally neck , back , legs the tendons remain tight ....If you go to a physio ....they will try and get you to stretch , but you cant stretch a muscle that under tension .
I have found a few articles that have helped me understand tight muscles tendons ....so if you want any info please let me know and I will send you my e-mail
All the best Richard
You need to go to neurologist Dr. They are ones that finally gave me lyrica . I had to wait 6 months before he would give it to me to see if my pain would still be there. I was already going to them for my migraines. I take topomax daily for them. I am a text book to the t case of fibo. I hurt now all the time. Pain radiates in my muscles like someone is punching me non stop or twisting a knife in them. I'm 50 this just all started after I lost 65 pounds. I hoped you quit taking all those pills, they will eat your gut up and give you ulcers.
I did all that. I changed my diet. I quit drinking pop, cold turkey. I gave up fast food, no more c**p like chicken nugget, burgers that are foreign meat and so on. I started exercising like crazy and lost 65pounds. I had suffered from weather changing headaches most of my life and they turned into migraines that past 3 years and then when I lost weight I noticed I was starting to hurt, first it my wrist. I thought it was from riding my bike, I got wrist braces. Then it went to my upper shoulder blade, then in my upper arms now it's very where. My friend kept telling me it's fybro. You better go to your neurologist, I said I go in 6 months for my check up. Well I went I told him, he did some pressure points they hurt but not that bad ( at the time) well I had to wait 6 months more because he said he didn't want me to take meds on top of the topomax. Let's just see if the pain goes away. When I walked in 6 months later I was begging, he did the pressure points and I dang near jump through the ceiling. He gave me lyrica, it took about a week before I noticed hey I can sit and get up and not hurt, and sleep all night with out pain waking me up. You look up fybro it should h e my name by it. I still go for walks to get my heart rate up, don't drink pop, been 2 years! Cut back on sugars cause to much makes me feel yucky gives me gut ache. Now I am to the point where the meds need to be increased I was taking the lowest dose, but I am hurting again. Like some one is punching me or sticking a knife in my muscles all dy
