Brief Answer:
Nothing worrisome, further tests advised..

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I have gone through your medical history carefully and understood your concerns.

I advise to run :
- cardiac examination to rule out heart problems
- neurological examination to exclude neurological isdues
- blood work to rule out arthritis (crp, arthritis testing )

To my opinion, there is nothing worrisome. Follow a healthy diet and lifestyle regimen. Try to lose weight if overweight.
Keep doing regular physical activity.
Take multivitamins supplements.

All the best!
