I'm very concerned about an on going collection of symtoms I've been getting for the last few years...and they seem to be much worse lately. I feel excorsted, my entire body feels completely void of energy, my muscles and joints feel painful and tender, my legs swell (from my knees to my feet), my joints bruise badly for no reason, I can't seem to draw enough breath to get oxygen in my lungs, the muscles in my back and legs spasm and feel hard and tender when they are massaged. I become very depressed and tired when these symtoms flare up. They flare up once ot twice a month and last for about 3 days to a fortnight. I'm 30 years old, eat healthily, excersise moderately and am a healthy weight (8 and a half stone). I work full time as a journalist / editor for a magazine, so I'm kept busy. I have a very lovely life, so I can't understand why I feel like this so often. Please, if anyone has any advice, I'd be very grateful.
