I am having a pain in my leg wrist and sometimes in the finger root in my hand. and neck

Posted , 4 users are following.

I have been trying various types of medication . I get pains in legs . not joint ( sometimes in joints) but in other places like top of the leg and writs some times. and even in fingers. side of the neck.

When I get this pain usually its really painful at night and in the morning there is no pain but I will not be able to walk if it is leg pain. Leg will be sally .

for 7 years I am getting medicine from various doctors. One doctor told me that this happened due to an issue in the immune system . One said its gout . But when I look at it I never get gout symptoms as its not becoming red at any time.

At the same time I get this pain i get oral thrush . in my tongue and lips sometimes.

I got many reports

ESR is high when i get the pain

I have cholestrol levels 296

I am orally taking levothiroxine as its not in the normal levels.

is this kind of an arthritis ? if yes how can i diagnose it and identify which one I am having.. This occur maybe twice or thrice a year.

Please kindly tell me what is this disease. I am really upset and frustrated . Sometimes I take 3 days leave from office since I cannot walk.

    You must visit a remotologist to have a thorough check up with RA lab tests. Its difficult to give any opinion on what you have described.

    You don't mention your age. But if your over 50 then there is a likelihood of this being a disease called Polymyalgia Rheumatica. It is an autoimmune disease. One test for it is a high level of ESR (AKA Sed rate) and a high level of a CRP (AKA C-reactive Protein). Both of these are inflammation markers. You need to see a rheumatologist who can determine if this is what you have and treat you. The normal treatment for this is long term steroids. There is a very good group on this forum for people with PMR.

      Logout

      Zeradol

      Which reduces uric acid levels and reduce pain. But getting those medicine did not help me. She suspected that I am having gout. But I did not get gout symptoms. Sometimes pain occor in maybe mussels I am not pretty sure about it. Not always in bornes. As it happens sometimes in the neck. I feel like there is a co relation between oral thrush and this at same times. If I get more oral thrush body pains such as leg wrist or anywhere is lower. If i get less oral thrush then there is a pain in somewhere in the body.
