I have flu like symptons with pains in my legs and shins on and off. Does anyboy know what this might be?

I have to take Motrin 800 mg for anykind of relief. I am getting nervous. I thought it was from my arthritis but once again the Doctors said "no". Any help will be appreciated. I was tested for lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, etc. What the heck is it. any strenuous exercise makes it worse. It feels like someone is poking me with a knife in legs.

That sound like like one of those horrible flu's! They are horrible!!! Have you had any fever! If not you might get a fever! Umm only thing I might suggest is stay indoors, or basically at night before going to sleep take a warm shower with the Vicks shower relief... its this soap like thing you put in your tub/ shower while taking a shower and your breathing in the vicks vapor... after that drink a hot tea, like thera flu helps out alot and also get a cheap humidifier.... next morning you should feel some kind of relief! This flu isn't ganna go away easily so take tylenol during the day and drink thera flu during the day also... that drink is nasty but it'll make you feel better! Hope I helped and hope you get well soon!!!

It makes me think of a nerve problem.

If you have any blisters on your legs? It could be shingles. Check it out on the internet. I had it once and had pain in my legs. I only had one blister though. It lasted quite a while.

neuropathy is the term..can be from diabetes or poor circulation....call the doc or get another opinion.............
also,have Vitamin B-12 and folates checked..........

The flu? It's in season..

you might have lime deisece it is from a tick bite go check with your doctor
