Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Pain and soreness in muscles of upper arms near shoulders, in pelvises,in lower back, in groin, in abdomen and sometimes in muscles of legs. haven't had any injuries etc. Can't figure out why. have been on meds for depression for 10 years but don't think this is the cause. Niall
These symptoms are due to side effects of anti depressant medication taken over long years.
I will advise to check your vit B12 and vit D3 level, sr CPK level, sr electrolyte and routine CBC.
You can consult physiotherapist for help. Physiotherapy like ultrasound and interferential therapy will give quick relief Strengthening gradual exercises will help in regaining power again. I will advise to check your vit B12 and vit D3 level.
