FIRST ~ I'M A 27 YEAR OLD FEMALE
**joint pain in fingers, wrists, elbows- then shoulders- then hips- now knees(also have started experiencing what feels like an electric shock or
pulse/wave of electricity that goes up my arm and down my thumb when I accidentally turn my wrist a certain way)
**toe joints started to hurt at the same time feet started turning purple and would sporadically get these itchy bumps on my toes, that go as suddenly as they come
**red blood vessel or pin head sized/shaped dots under surface of skin of legs & feet - these are dark red, and do not go away when I rub my leg or press on the area
**Muscles ache
**Almost daily headaches(feel like they're possibly derivative of neck pain)
**Feel fevered/hot to touch on torso & thighs many evenings
**Disgusting, drenching night sweats
**Loss of sensation in toes, feet & sometimes complete loss of feeling of both legs when sitting
**Large knots filled w/ sebum(sometimes larger than a marble)- very painful- that eventually open & get infected and SCAR my face :-(
**In January- White Blood Cell Count was 3.2
**Blood Pressure stays around 90/55
Every few days, I wake up & feel like I've drunk a gallon of vodka, and then attempted to run a marathon, before stepping out in front of a speeding Mack truck. Every joint hurts. Every muscle aches. My head feels like it will literally crack open. I'm EXTREMELY nauseus, and sore everywhere.
**Also, I've become extremely sensative to light & sound
I WAS DIAGNOSED W/ NARCOLEPSY, AFTER FINALLY GETTING A REFERRAL TO A SLEEP SPECIALIST 2 YEARS AGO, FOLLOWING 7 YEARS OF ASKING WHAT THE HECK WAS WRONG W/ ME
Any Ideas???? I could really use some help
What is NAET ??
Hi Everyone,
Some of you sound like you may have rhuemetoid arthritis (not sure if i spelled that right). My mother had symtoms like a few of you mentioned. I couldn't even give her a hug without her feeling pain. There were also days where she could not get out of bed. She has been on many different kinds of medications because of it, and also some "experimental" ones.
Apparently, it has now went into remission and her symptoms have almost all cleared up, but it kind of scares me for 2 reasons. Firstly, even though it is in remission she still has it, and it was not fun too see her like that. Secondly, there isn't any researched knowledge (that I know of) that can tell what causes it, what the symptoms can be, nor a way to cure it.
I have recently aquired many of the same symptoms; headaches, joint pain, purple skin on or near almost all joints, fatigue... You name it. Again, no scientific reseach to prove its genetic, or what causes it, but if any of you have any useful links, please provide them. Google is probably sick of me searching for them! :p
If any of you have not yet seen a doctor, I would certainly do so. You may not get a definite answer, but be sure to tell your doctor you suspect RA.
Better Health To All!!! :D
