You're not alone,I have arthritis in too many places to mention.At the moment I'm having problems with aching arms,shoulders,neck and my knees and shins feel like they're made of ice.Unpleasant somewhat.

Should i tell my doctor when i see him soon ? I feel like i annoy him with all my all over the place symptoms.. at the end he's a gastroenterologist

I would still tell him,it has been suggested that coeliac disease can be linked to arthritis.(I have both)Ask to be referred to an orthopaedic or musculoskeletal doctor,it can't harm and at least you'll maybe get to know what's wrong.Good luck.

Yes, I as well. Back pain causes me to need support which is just horrifying! And tons of arthritis. Chicken/egg -- not sure which came first as celiac is a very recent diagnosis on the heels of being at 60% hemoglobin (iron-deficiency anemia) which has gotten better with supplementation. However, the arthritis has gotten worse :(

I feel for you,I too have several of your problems.It is a bit of a pain trying to figure out which one is giving grief at times as they can overlap each other and certain symptoms can occur from different ailments.

Bone and joint pains can be caused by low vit d, often associated with intolerances and the U.K weather!

Oh and magnesium is good for muscle pain, either supplements, oil sprayed or skin or soak in Epsom salts.

VitD needs to be around 100. It would also be helpful to know your results with ranges for B12 - Folate and Ferritin. All need to optimal for you to feel well. If Ferritin is LOW in range then a full Iron Profile is needed. Low Iron = Low oxygen = problems with oxygen around the body.

Low Thyroid can also be the cause of all over body pain - I am wondering if you have been tested ?

I would ask for your blood results so you can see what they are, they could be very low but still within range and the GP may not think to treat if they are in range, however they could be too low for you

Not what you're looking for?
