Hi,

Thank you for providing the brief history of you.

A thorough musculoskeletal assessment is advised.

As you are feeling cold, that may be due to some infection and by this the body feels cold.

Also, for the stiff joints, getting a musculoskeletal assessment is advised, May be an RA can be present, but a blood examination for RA is needed.

Also, you smoke a lot of Cigarettes , you will not feel hungry, as nicotine is a brain stimulator and also the appetite supressor. Kindly stop smoking too much to allow the stomach to get filled.

Regards
