Suggest Treatment For Chronic Pain In The Hip, Elbow And Shoulder
I have chronic pain in my left hip, left elbow, left shoulder and right hand. This has been going for about 2 years. I saw a Rheumatologist who prescribed Cymbalta and has raised it to 90 mgs per day but I have not been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia. I am trying to find out what it is I am experiencing since I don t fit the classic fibromyalgia symptoms. I have no swelling and warmth in my joints, although my legs do burn and I do have stiffness and dizziness in the morning and have tremors. I am a 52 year old female. Thanks for your help
