Painful Joints And Muscles, Stiff Neck And Upper Arms In A 76 Yr Old?
I am 76 recently I have very painful joints and muscles, difficulty in walking and getting up from sitting also stiff neck, upper arms.. I have been taking statins and have taken myself off of them for a couple of weeks. I am in great pain in bed and cannot sleep. Have an appointment with my GP in 1 week.
HI
Thank for asking to HCM
