This & That, Good & Bad, Ups & Downs

I feel like I've got alot to say yet it's a jumble & I don't really know if I can make good sense here.
Abt a wk ago I've started having fasculitis problems but it's weird it's just between my ankles & knees.  It really puzzles me & REALLY bothers me as to why this has started all of a sudden.  Also for the last month by abt 6 p.m. every single night I've got serious arthritis pain mostly in the hands & wrist area but a bit in the knees.  Some general achy type feelings too.  I don't know if maybe our cold climate this time of yr is contributing to this but it still leaves me wondering abt the vasculitis thing.
I've been pretty careful abt what I'm eating at least 85% of the time.  Yes I do cheat on a few things here & there but nothing steady.
I added a b complex vitamin to my vitamin program & I can say it's had a positive effect on the energy issue but now in my confusion it's got me wondering if it's causing adverse stuff in other areas.
My younger sister is having on-going depression issues & will be going in the hospital again for a bit.  I'd like to take her & shake her sometimes because she quite often will turn to me for help/advice & such & I'll give ideas/recommendations but all she does is spin her wheels & she never steps out beyond her current circle of life so why do I keep banging my head against a wall here huh. My gut is telling me that one of these times when she approaches me I think it's time to nicely bring this point to her attn.   She says she focuses alot on prayer & the Lord but there's something just not clicking.
I'm now really wondering if I've, without realizing it, contributed to some of my problems at this time.  Seriously wondering if I need to keep my mouth shut & just let her flounder on her own, take a serious step away, turn a blind eye, etc. etc.  Need to think abt this.  
I'm still seeing my new reflexologist/reiki practitioner & I know it's a strong benefit for me on a lot of levels, but, does anyone ever experience with a dr or person such as this, that feeling that it's still not quite as good as your previous one.  I don't know, maybe I'm grasping at straws here.
Well I think I'll sign off for now, I've whined enough here.  I do value any thoughts my friends here on DS have as an outside person can sometimes have some good insight.
Thanks everyone.
