I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia in 1991 and these are one of the symptoms I have to suffer when I'm having a 'flare up'. It might be worth checking into this.
Hi maz1961, It could be nerve impingement of a disc in your back, being referred down your legs in the lower back and possibly from your neck (cervical) in your arms. I have both these symptoms and I have a mixture of disc problems with spinal stenosis, myelopathy,radiculopathy and arthritis. (All diagnosed with X rays and MRI scans).
You say you are on medication that does not help. You need to return to your doctor and explain this. There are many medications that help spinal problems but you need a definite diagnosis from hospital tests. You also need decent pain control.
As Sis said you could also have a condition called Fibromyalgia or even something completely different to both our suggestions, you need to get it sorted out.
Good luck and hope you get an answer soon.
