Hello,

Your symptoms could be related to a rheumatological disorder. For this reason, I recommend consulting with your attending physician for a physical exam and some tests:
- Complete blood count, PCR, ESR
- Blood electrolytes
- RF plasma levels
- ANA, ANCA titer
- Vitamin D and vitamin B12 plasma levels for possible deficiency

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
