Okay, I went to a Rhumatologist. She tested my blood for Rhumatiod Arthritis, and several other diseases. I was negative on all counts. Also I did an Xray of my hands and knees, negative results. However, the doctor did fond that my blood contained high levels of inflamation. I was perscribed Naproxen 500 MG. I asked her why my body is inflammed, specifically my knees and legs? She told me she did not know, and that I could have the kind of arthritis that does not show up in the blood. She also told me that If I had arthritis I would not be able to exercise my legs and knees as I do. But my problem is NOT the exercise, it is the INactivity (when I sleep or sit for longer than 20 minutes. I am so freakin confused. WHen I go to stand up my legs and feet ache, and are Extremely Stiff. It takes me a minute or two, to unstiffen my legs by streching them or move them around slowly. Has anyone experienced this?
