Good morning,
Since English is not my first tongue, if I made mistakes you don't understand the following descriptions, please ask.
This is my story: I have never suffered any particular problems apart from Gilbert's syndrome; but since I gave birth two years ago, I started to have pains, and pains have begun to increase.
At first I thought they were due to mom's efforts: raising the baby, sleeping little, etc.
But now that I have a quieter life, pains continue to grow.
The pains are:
-to the hands
-shoulders
-back (all back bones)
-arms
-legs
Mainly the pain radiates from the joints.
I'm 1.78 m high (5.84 feet), weight 60kg (132 lbs), 36 years old, I have always been sporting; for this I am very surprised and scared. If these pains continue then these aches will come to the point of making me invalid.
I did some visits and some analyzes (see below) but it does not seem to be explained. I even thought it was a psychological problem, but with painkillers the pain goes by. Is it my mind joking me?
This is the list of the only not standard values of my analysis:
* x-ray basin: asymmetry of the iliac wings
* x-ray lumbosacral column: small left femoral osteophyte cephalic, slight reduction in the amplitude of the last two disc spaces
* x-ray knee radius: areas of second degree chondromalacia on rotular sputum
* hands ultrasound: Initial subluxation on the radial slope of the first clear bilateral metacarpus on the right
* blood tests with results of attention:
** Vitamin D: 27.9 ng / ml
** HLA-B27: NEGATIVE
** Ab anti-nucleus ANA: present 1:80 dotted
** globules white: 3.95 thousand / mcL
** APTT ratio: 1.18
** Creatinine 0.89 mg / dL
** Ferritin: 6ng / ml
** ALFA 1 glycoprotein: 44.2 mg / dL
** normal hormones
** Antibody titre 4.6 (normal 0-20)
** Rheumatoid factor 10 (normal 0-30)
Another symptom is that for several years, 1-4 times a year I see a rush on the entire trunk and then disappears in 1-2 days. (is it Lupus?)
Another symptom is the swollen hands in the morning, the wedding ring no longer enters.
All this does not explain the strong pain, some days if I touch my fingers almost yell. Other days I can not get up from bed for pain.
What other examinations should I do?
Do you recommend a CT scan?
Or a magnetic resonance? Or other?
Ideas? Suggestions?
Can be a chronic chikungunya?
