Muscle Pain and Lightheadedness, what should I do?

Treatment and medication
1

Lately I have been struggling with: 

fatigue 

head ache  

wide spread muscle pain  

muscle cramping 

muscle cramps in leg 

allodynia 

back pain- lower and upper

neck ache 

knee pain 

feet pain 

dizziness 

lightheadedness 

costochondritis 

and severe stomach issues 

The muscle pain is pretty much a constant, even if it's just a dull roar in the background with flareups upon moving quickly. Additionally, I am in a state of being constantly tired- sometimes I even have irresistable urges to fall asleep in inappropriate places (public, loud places, etc). Right now I am chalking the fatigue up to stress caused by school.

Of course, the symptom checker told me that these issues are from Fibromyalgia and/or POTS. I do not believe I have POTS, but I am looking into seeing a rheumatologist about potential Fibromyalgia.

I drink atleast 2 (24oz) water bottles a day and I eat atleast a snack every two hours (doctors orders due to acid reflux), and I walk a fair amount every day.

Any ideas as to what is going on?

Hi, you are approaching your health and issues in a intelligent manner. I write to encourage you in your battle for your health. This will take a lot of your persistence, courage and help from your family and friends. I think finding the Drs with the best knowledge of your issues will be most important. This can be an exhausting and depressing struggle and I wish you the very best of luck, my thoughts are with you.

Hi brie37444

You need to get an inflammation blood test this is done via an ESR test, CRP test and ANA blood test...if these levels are high it is usually an indication of inflammation in the body.....which can cause extreme fatique...at the same time get your B12 checked and test for anaemia these can cause fatique and pain and cramps if levels are low.......best wishes....
