Severe Pain In Arms, Ankles And Feet. Swollen Wrist. On Diclofenac For Swelling. Pain Management Measures?

I have severe pain in my arms and ankles, hurts to stand and feet and hands cramp, pain worst when resting or sleeping. I'm tired all the time and can barely make it up the stairs. My wrists are also swollen. I am taking Diclofenac for the swelling in my feet, which has helped. My blood pressure was 149/90 and ekg o.k. Can't handle the pain, not sure what type of doctor to make an appointment with. Vicki

Hi,
you seem to be suffering from arthritis, could be rheumatoid arthritis.
Please see a rheumatologist at the earliest before the problem gets out of hand.
