Multiple joint pain, no inflammation..

[roobiedoobie]

Hiya..

I have recently started suffering with joint pain.

This is in my ankles, knees, wrists, thumbs and fingers.

I had an appointment at the GP, who did a blood test to check for inflammatory markers, this came back as 'satisfactory' so he said it's not rheumatoid arthritis and is sending me to physiotherapy as he said it must be a mechanical issue.

Has anyone else had these symptoms and a negative result for inflammation?

I also have coeliac disease, endometriosis and Reynolds syndrome.

Any advice welcome.

Thanks

Roo

Hiya

I also have pain in my joints and also had a satisfactory bloods....

I got told the same, went to physio and now have been referred to Rheumatology. I had to push thou!

I had to go to a Cat Physio which is the specialist physio who can order more expensive test, scans and refer you to the right department.

I had to not take NO for the answer.

Hopefully one step closer to figure out what's going on with me, so I can get on with my life!

Hope all goes well for you.

Hiya..

Thank you for your reply.

I am mostly cured!

I had been wearing a Fitbit and seeing as I was suffering the pain and with the lock down due to Covid 19 I decided to remove the Fitbit as it was getting me down never hitting my target.

Within a few days my pain had mostly disappeared.

I contacted Fitbit who gave me a full refund.

Hope you find some answers
