I am only 31 and i fell a few months ago. I have alot of. Lower back pain to the point i kant walk. I have lots of pain in my left leg outer thigh area. My knees ache and i sometimes have pain kna achy and numbin at the same time in my left arm. I have heartburn really bad and my chest aches sometimes. I am 5'8 and 270 lbs so i am very overweight but i work everyday even thoug most days it takes me 15 or 20 minutes too get out the bed n the mornings. My fall was because my right knee gave out. But i didnt break anything and the docters continue to say all the pain im having now is jus a reaction to my fall. I dont have insurence so i have to pay out of pocket too see these docters and i kant afford to continue to go and im not getting any answers. Can someone please give me some advice

Hello,

I hate to say it but sounds like Fibromyalgia to me. Please be persistant with your doctors.  I would hate for you to be diagnosed after bursitis sets in to trigger spots.  I am not a doctor.  However, I must say that sometimes a patient knows best and needs to be persistant and say "Enough is Enough". "My body does not feel right". "What can we do to try and remedy this?

Take Care!
