Everything Hurts! Swelling, Nerves, Joints, etc

I am a 26 year old male in generally good health until now, it has been a few months of this terrible situation which has me very concerned.

I experience symptoms including:

-feelings of heat & cold flashes

- weakness, dizziness, fatigue

- electric like shocks through nervous system

- muscles very tight and sore

- lower back pain shooting down legs, etc

- arms / legs very tired and sore / tender

- fingers are curling in and I can not bend them straight or put hand down flat

- blood vessels are sinking into arms / legs at times

- major to minor swelling in feet and legs, knuckles and finger joints and elsewhere at times

- difficult to stand up / sit down

- difficult to walk at times

- knees very sore and swollen

- stretching hurts and can not move muscles like I used too

- entire body feels drained, very sensitive, tender, sore, and fatigued

- also sometimes I can feel my liver & / or kidneys and occasionally it hurts a bit to pee


These are the symptoms I can note for now, but overall this is very draining and my life has become difficult, even just the simple daily tasks.

Thank you and please let me know if you are aware of what this could be.

A few side notes:

- I was a healthy kid but raised on typical toxic American diet

- I have had some lower back nerve issues before however the swelling and disabled hands are entirely new to me

- I eat a very good, healthy, vegetarian diet now and am physically active to the best of my ability

- I have been sexually active shortly before and during these experiences with my partner of 9 months

- the symptoms gradually started about 4 months ago and have become much worse in last couple months however I am managing to cope

Nothing I do seems to help very much.

Please help.

Thank you
