I agree that this doesn't sound much like MS. Aching joints aren't part of MS, unless very indirectly, perhaps due to muscle spasticity, but as Kyle says, this doesn't move around. Fatigue can happen from dozens of factors. I suggest seeing your doctor for a physical exam. Good luck.

Hi STG -

The symptoms you describe do not sound overly like MS. MS symptoms are caused by damage at fixed locations in the central nervous system. The damage does not move, so the symptoms tend not to move.

If MS was causing your joint pain it would be the same joint all the time, rather than you right hip one day and you left knee the next.

Have you seen a doctor?

Are you asking if this sounds like MS? I am no doctor. You can get a GP to do a neurological exam. If anything is off they can then send you to a neurologist. Joints are not MS related.
