I have joint pain and back/hip pain. My one doc suggested fibromyalgia. I was diagnosed with CVID and chronic fatigue syndrome which causes some of the pain. The rest my immuno doc believes has an autoimmune/infectious background too it because I have had some symtoms of autoimmune probs. High inflammation rates, borderline rheumatological tests in the past. I get severe pain at times and am on duragesic (fentanyl patches). It is just good to meet someone else who goes through pain at all cuz sometimes I feel alone in this. I am only 29. This has not helped my depression or anxiety one bit, just in reference to your other post. It makes it much much worse. Sometimes I am just like too uncomfortable if that makes any sense. I cannot stand long, or hardly walk long. My arms are getting better with IVIG treatment though, it seems to have cleared up some of the stiffness and pain I have. Perhaps you should see if an immuno doc could help you. HUGS
