Hi, I am an 18 year old female. I have excessively sweaty armits and both my lymph nodes sell and get sore for several days at a time. My joints ache badly. My knees, my elbows, my hips. All of my joints crack and pop constantly. My back cracks and constantly hurts as does my neck. My feet are almost always purple and cold. I often get the sensation in my feet like they have been asleep and the circulation is just returning. Sometimes they burn. When I throw or do certain things I get a terrible shocking pain in my elbows. I have chest pain often and shortness of breath. I feel my heart beat sometimes and it will skip a beat and it just isn't rythmatic. I am concerned for I am so young and I am afraid I will end up in a wheelchair before I am forty. I do not have medical insurance but I plan to consult with the dhhr for something so that I won't be charged to get help. My first cousin was recently diagnosed with lupus. I know that this is genetic. Couldvthis be what's wrong with me?
