Hi
You may get blood test for ESR,CRP,CBC..if these are significantly raised then maybe osteoarthritis disease process could be causing additional symptoms.Osteoarthritis pain throws normal life out of gear in active state and gives vague feeling and depression.Just relax, take medicines prescribed,if not,prescribed,take Ace -proxyvon one tab twice a day and take physiotherapy exercises.If still feel gloomy, take clonazipam 0.25mg at bed time..a physician can write prescription if he agrees
