Is this Arthritis or something else
Hi,
It all started 4 months back. While I was sleeping I felt some sharp noise in right shoulder joint and my hand became week and thin, same thing happened with left one couple of days after. I felt both hands lighter and something missing in my shoulder joints.I can feel that whenever i lift my hands. couple of days later, while sleeping i found weekness in legs and something is misisng in thighs. The knee joint and thigh joints became lighter. Same thing with buttocks. Felt like something is squeezing them inside. Slowly I lost weight and muscle in thighs,arms,chest and arms and legs became light/week not like before. I lost muscle at upper thighs (both sides of groin) also. Totally I lost 11 lbs in one month. When sleeping I feel pain in shoulder joints, left arm, tingling on face. I feel some sort of feeling in knee joints, ankles . This may be because I lost the flesh there.I can do all things as before, but I feel lighter and less energitic because of muscle loss and I am scared that I may lose more muscles especially in thighs, I cannot wear my pants because they are so lose now.
Are these symptoms related to any type of arthritis.My joint are not swollen or red. I feel something is missing in my joints

Wow, lots of doctors. No rheumatologist listed, though. You may want to go ahead and see one. There are so many different autoimmune diseases and they are the specialists on that. Please let us know what you find out and how you are doing.
Yes, I have been to endocronologist,regular PCP, urologist, Gastro Enterologist,Neurologist.MRIs for head, upper spine,middle spine and lower spine came back fine. Neuroligist don't know what is causing my symptoms.MS ,Lyme and others are ruled out.He wants me to go spinal tap. Extensive blood tests show normal results. I have appoint ment with orthopedic surgeon in 10 days.
