In the last three weeks, I have had stiffness in pain in joints and extremities to the point of looking like an old lady when I try to get up from a chair. It seems to hang for a couple of days, then abate somewhat. Up until 3 weeks ago, I was working out at the gym 3 times a week (strength training, lean conditioning) but have stopped as it is too painful on joints. On arising from bed, I can barely move during these episodes.
