I m 37 years old and am suffering with severe muscle pain from head to toe; I have difficulty lifting my arms and legs; lost of appetite and when I do eat I have difficulty outing my mouth wide enough and swallowing or chewing food. In addition I have gained over 30 pounds in six months primary due to water retention and swelling.

hi,

thank-you for providing the brief history of you.

As you have water retention and Having more of a fatigue I will Advice you to have a thorough clinical examination and may be an ultrasonography of the abdomen.

based on which we can come to know about the possible cause and eliminate the differential causes.

Many a times due to water retention the causative factor is the renal issues and needs attention. due to swelling and metabolic waste it might be possible that the fatigue level has increased and there needs an improvement in the overall systemic functions. So ruling out the cause is of due importance.

Usually with simple medication and proper diet and exercise you should respond well like many of my other patients.

Regards
