    I don't know if this the forum you meant to be on because most of us have a form of vasculitis called PMR - it can cause symptoms similar to what you describe. The place to go is your doctor to find out what is causing it.

    Otherwise I can only say that all of us here have similar problems with pain more or less all day and every day so you are by no means alone. That may not sound very sympathetic but it is the reality for us all. If you have constant pain you need to have it investigated.

      If you want info then you have to ask a question of some shape or form. This isn't an osteoarthritis thread - few of us have OA. When it comes to PMR or GCA I and most of the others here could write pages - but it would take us a long time and still not answer what you want to know. Anyway, my response would still be the same - to get a diagnosis and treatment you have to see a doctor.
