Sudden Muscle weakness, Joint cracking and popping?
Posted , 40 users are following.
My age is 29, from the last 4-5 months I have been experiencing strange symptoms. All my joints are cracking, muscles are weakening day by day. It appears that the Flesh beneath skin is vanishing. Sometimes I feel mild pain while moving my joints. Mild nausea, previously I had bowel movement once in 3 days now it is on daily basis, it seems like the body is not able to properly absorb nutrients. I can see losse skin on my hands, arm pits etc. The strangest thing is that if I put flashlight under my hand then I can clearly see the veins, why the flesh had become transparent? Hair loss from all over body, especially from the scalp. 2 Months ago I gone through a number of tests and the only thing came up was Vitamin D deficiency (23 ng/ml). Montly dose of 200,000 IU was prescribed. Itchining on skin, it gets red too quickly. What all of these symptoms may meanm not that I do smoke about 10 Cigrates a day and slo take Tea 2 times a day. Furthermore I was not tested for Kidney and Thyoroid. Could there be any problem with these two?

My neck was stiff at first, my muscles weakened and that stopped. I could hear crunching in my neck when I turned it. I freak out every day because I'm losing muscle in different places. Doctors just look at you like you're crazy as long as you're still living.

I've talked to several on here about their symptoms. I'm wondering how you guys are? I'm trying to raise money , I'm actually going to get stem cell treatment in the Cayman islands to see if it will help.

I highly recommend that you read about Dr. Paul Cheney's work with stem cell treatment. Google the following article: "Experimental Stem Cell Transfusion Treatment for ME/CFS." Dr. Cheney is a foremost doctor and researcher of ME/CFS in the U.S.

Hello Jackie,
I don't have CFS or me. I have a very severe myopathy. It's approached differently and is very difficult to give a prognosis

I forgot to post sorry. I had my first PT appointment 6 days ago since then I have been 95% symptom free and my daily pain went from an 7+ to a 2 or less. Just some mild disconforts. The PT found some knots in my neck and shoulder and a cysts in my neck. He found I had uneven neck muscles and just did some pressure points for the first day. I couldn't believe it. He has me do lat pull downs and other exercies but I could feel a burn/tightness and knot feeling right at the center of my back too. I have no idea whats going on there, if I drive a tractor my back will tighten up and cuases me to have breathing problems. I feel like this is going in the right direction.

Kenny I did get the stem cell treatment but it didn't work. The only other thing I've found is gluten intolerance but that hasn't helped yet

Sorry to hear. But I have read so many articles about gluten free diets and how it has helped people in situations like these. I have no diagnosis other than depression and anxiety. Which my anxiety started first after I was having intermittent testicle pain. Which has subsided but now I have a list just like everyone else in here. It’s been a long 7 months and have no idea where to turn. My next try will be Candida overgrowth. Thanks fir the reply Jeremy. Keep in touch.

I want to reply to this post in hopes that someone out there finds this helpful! I started following this discussion about 2 1/2 years ago when my health fell quickly deteriorated. I am a 44 mom of two, in California. My symptoms were broad, a feeling of inward trembling, arm tremors, temp regulation issues, raynauds, slight vertigo, muscle cramping, exercise intolerance, hashimoto diagnosis, chronic uticaria, numbness in arms, muscle fascinations/twitching, sweats at night - 3 months later all over bodycracking and joint pain/popping/ looseness that continue to today; worse in my neck & shoulders. After many visits to my GP, rheumatologist, neuorologist, orthopedist, MRI, x-rays CT scans - the only thing was a positive was hashimoto antibody. I was on the web constantly looking for insight. I am now being treated (with slow success) for Lyme disease! I never recall a tick bite, ever. I am a very high positive using & had a CD-57 of 16 indicating severe. It's been 10 months of antibiotics and I'm slowly doing better. If you have sim symptoms, pls find a Lyme literate doctor to at least rule it out. I literally thought I was dying until I got my diagnosis. Another thought is to book an appointment for an infrared sauna 30 min 140 degrees. If you have parasitic bacteria - you might feel "something strange" or flu-like after, as Lyme bacteria can die or move if you expose them to infrared penetrating light sauna. Love, health and hope to all.
I have removed reference to individual private clinics such as IGeneX and Armin Laboratories, which are not supported by UK doctors[b]

Julie, I was seriously hoping that's what I had. I had everyone of those symptoms. I got tested for Lyme with every expensive Lyme test possible. Unfortunately, every band was negative. I had zero positive markers.

Jeremy, I was blocked from putting the lab that finally gave me a positive diagnosis for lyme. I have had four tests now using this "blocked" lab, and there is very very slight change from My results as they have been tested every three months now for a year. So this was not a one time fluke positive. I even accidentally went to the wrong lab and still got a negative lyme - even though I was being treated for it. If you use anything but this lab you may not be getting the sensitivity required to help you. It's very frustrating. I was tested for lyme (normal lab) within six months of my symptoms and was negative and moved back into the undiagnosed zone! It wasn't until I had a orthopedist tell me not to give up on lyme ( and it's coinfection's) that I thought to even retest for it. Pls keep me posted in progress. I have a US doctor that is very good, he will even skype as he has several patients around the world.

Hello Julie,
I have been tested through a very expensive lab (not normal lab tests in doctors office) I believe it's the same one you are referring too. It was all negative
