Hey bro....I had an HIV scare that I am still dealing with and you know what? We're shareing the same symptoms. Im in the medical field and can tell you that symptoms are a horrible indicator for any disease...except for anxiety. When your stressed your shoulders tighten up and pull your trapezious muscle foward and it pushes your neck all out of whack and then your nerves get irritated and wammo...leg and arm pain. Let me guess muscle weakness in your thighs (Both) maybe calf pain and pain in the back of your legs...not really painful but just like you ran alot and the now they feel like jelly (am I close?)
This is clasic symptoms along with headaches and neck aches and lower back pains.
1. Give your meds time to take effect and start balancing you out.
2. get a good Chiropractor and massage therapist (Trust me dude its not bad having someone working on your trigger points and feeling your muscles unwind like a rubber band)

3. Go and do something that you love to do and get away from whatever is your stressor is.
4. Excersise your ass off and get rid of negative energy that makes you get stuck in neutral and not moving foward anymore.

Im still dealing with this and probably will for a while. remember that your brain is more powerful than you will ever imagine and can mimic symptoms of something that you just read off the net/book. focus and live the moment man...this is not a dress rehersal this precious life we have so live it like your dying man. Take care brother and remember....negative thoughts are just that...negative so think happy thoughts of your past present and future.
