my daughters pain

Hello.. my daughter is 14 years old and she has been suffering from pain for about 3 years now. She says that the joints in her toes, ankles,and  knees have pain. Her shoulders, elbows, fingers, and wrists also has pain. She describes the pain radiating from her knee to her shin and her elbow to the bone between her wrists. she also says that she gets a headache on the right side of her head sometimes and when she has pain her arms become weak. Once she experienced half of her body going numb but not her face and she said she experienced the same type of "headache" in the right side of her head.  She has seen a rhumetologist numerous times and he has ruled out fibromyalgia and  arthritis. She has seen a muscle disease specialist, nuerologist (just checked her arm), biofeedback, orthopedics and nothing. Ive now asked her doctor to check her for lupus and am awaiting the results. I just need to know what else to look for. Where should I go from here?

I think I should have posted this comment on the undiagnosed area.
