Hi
Welcome to the MedHelp forum!
You have described your symptoms pretty well. From you symptoms alone it sounds like chronic fatigue syndrome. This usually presents with widespread myalgia (muscle ache) and arthralgia (bone and joint ache), headaches, chronic mental and physical exhaustion, cognitive difficulties, concentration difficulty and memory problems. Cognitive behavior therapy, memory games, multivitamin therapy, nutritional care, graded increase in exercise all help to treat it. There is no cause for this.
Unexplained aches and pains coming on and off could also be due to fibromyalgia, rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, Crohn’s disease, H pylori infection, anemia, liver disorders, diabetes, hypothyroidism, Vit B12 or Vit D deficiency and due to calcium or magnesium deficiency. It can also be due to sleep related disorders. In women it can be due to hormonal disturbances related to PCOD/menopause 9quite possible at your age so please consult a gynecologist and get a hormonal assessment—hormone replacement therapy may help).
Do discuss this with your doctor and get yourself examined. Take care!

Hi Nanny....boy do I know the feeling of doctors ignoring our concerns.
Have you been diagnosed with anything? Rhuematoid? Fibromyalgia? Osteoarthritis?
Stress and depression REALLY DOES CAUSE PAIN...but have they given you anything?
Perhaps you should seek the opinion of a Rhuematologist. I suggest that you:
Make a list of everything you have already been diagnosed with.
Make another list of what you are experiencing, not related to what you have already been diagnosed with.
Now...go through and circle the most debilitating effects. Of those circled...underline the one that feels to be the most active/prominent.
With this list...you can begin a discussion with your doctor. They only give us a few minutes and will only address one issue at a time (unfortunately we are at their mercy).
Finding the most concerning issue will, at least, be a start in a positive direction. If you are still unhappy with your doctor...find a new one. I had to shop and I still don't know if I found one that cares more about patients than pay checks.
Its very frustrating to be ignored and treated like you are crazy. BUT...YOU MUST BE YOUR OWN ADVOCATE !!! NO ONE is going to feel your pain...but it's up to you to make the health provider HEAR your pain.
I wish you the best of luck in your journey for pain relief and answers!!
