Wow! You've got me stumped. I have no clue what this could be except maybe an unusual presentation of arthritis. Please let us know what you find out-I think you should definitely see a dr if it's getting worse and not going away.

Update: As of right now, the pain is mostly gone, except for my right shoulder and arm. What I am noticing, it seems like it recedes and grow every few weeks.

I'm not having much luck with taking meds for it (getting nauseated). I will have to see my doctor as soon as I can get caught up on what I owe them. Not being able to work a normal job and having irregular employment is crappy for a sick kid :(

please keep us updated on how your doing with this
wishing you low pain

have you ever been checked for rsd it travels , maybe ask about it . it causes burning and red puffiness , I hope you don't have it I do and it's horrible. thanks good luck isabee

Isa,

The past few days I've been looking at it and I do suspect I may have it. I sweat so badly (esp once it's over 60F outside). My skin will change often and swell and peel. Currently I've been getting these fluid filled bumps on my hands. I know what an allergy/ eczema on my hands looks like and this is not it. These are not itchy and thy are MUCH bigger than the welts I get from my dye allergies and the eczema on my hands that is mostly a winter issue.

Currently, my knees and legs are bad. It's like on the inside they are on fire and on the outside they feel cold. it's like nothing makes it even superficially better. the upper body issues have basically stayed the same since my original post. This doesn't help the fact that I also have hemiplegic migraines and get severe muscle weakness/ numbness regularly.

RSD...read "Battle for Grace" by Cynthia Touissant.
Hope you get some relief!

Thank you for sending me Cynthia's book information. I too had several dance and sport injuries that I felt never really healed. I also had over the end of December and into January I had an issue with my throat and was unable to speak for almost a month. Started with just a sore throat one morning, but by the end of that day I was unable to speak. I'd cough a lot and the fits would eventually cause vomiting. Since then, my voice hasn't been the same. I'm basically in constant pain (esp my SI joint and legs).

I just feel like at this point in whatever is really wrong with me that my doctors (except my PCP) just think I'm faking or I'm crazy. I have also said that to my neurologist and the ER doctors I've seen that I didn't care what was wrong, but that it needs fixed. I can't really work and I've just become accustomed to staying at home all the time. In 2009 I was so active and stayed fit until I got a bad lung infection in the fall. After that, I just went downhill from there and was unable to lose this random weight that I had gained.
