Hi madam since you have not mentioned your age so I presume that you are past middle age. With arthritis you also have muscle fatigue. In my practice , for patient with your problem I would think in terms of osteoporosis and go for a Bone Densitometry( Dexa Scan) and baseline blood investigation like Se Ca S Vit D3.The treatment will depend on the report.
