hi,
What a great service. Thank you.
I'm 43 years old Asian male living in US. My weight is well within the limit and body structure is skinny.
For last few years, my veins and overall muscles are getting weaker and weaker as I age. VERY OFTEN, I get MUSCLE SPASM mainly, in the lower,and middle BACK.
My bones are also becoming fragile, not that it gets broken easily but I feel pain in thumb and finger bones but not in joints. Almost a year ago, I had a sprain in left ankle, and so far it has not been corrected.
If I stand for longer than lets say 30-45 minutes, my lower back starts acting and I feel my body wait has been shifted mainly towards lower back and legs. Upper body feels weak at he same time. My body doesn't gain muscle even though I used to exercise a lot with weights.
I take synthroid 100mcg every day. For last 4 months, since I started taking cholesterol lowering medicine, my cholestrol is well below 200 marks. But this vein and weakness problem is couple of years old now.
Please guide me what is wrong, who should I see and what kind of tests I should get done.
Thank you
