For about 10 years now, I have had joint problems that initially started with my ankles. I am now only 20 years old and the joint problems have moved to everywhere in my body: both ankles, right knee, left ankle, right wrist, lower back, chest, and the most recent is my right hip. After X-rays of nearly every joint, everything has proved non-conclusive. Even the MRI of my hip showed normal findings. About two months ago, I started waking up and to find myself very shaky. Five days ago, everything seemed to have gotten worse and I was not only shaky but also having a hard time breathing, concentrating, and had excruciating pain mainly on my sides. After getting more lab work done, my results showed very little abnormalities. My absolute lymphs were 3.5, glucose was 63, and TSH 4 of 4.680. All of these findings did not raise too much alarm for my doctors and despite a prescription of Meloxicam 15mg, and Baclofen 10mg, I have shown little to no improvement. I'm in constant pain. My social life and work is suffering tremendously so I'm reaching out hoping to find some answers from somebody to get better.

Have you had labs done to see if you might have an autoimmune disorder?
I think I would ask to have them done if you haven't already. I truly hope you find answers soon!
Best of luck
