What Causes Pain In The Limbs And Stomach Virus?

Hi. I have been having aches and pains for a little over 3 weeks now. The started in my hands and feet and have spread throughout my arms and legs. They come and go and are never constant. Up to the three week mark I had absolutely no other symptoms. Now i have what feels like bad sinus headaches and a stomach virus. The pains in my arms and legs have never kept me from doing anything and are mainly just mild. I have had a CBC and SED rate test done and the SED rate was normal but my CBC showed I was a little anemic but my white blood cells and platlets were completely normal. What could this be.

Hi.
Such symptoms can be due to a generalized disorder like Typhoid or so.
The pains and other symptoms you explained about your hands and feet can be a prodromal stage and since the body too heals such problems , every patient will get different sets of symptoms.
I would advise you the following:
You have to undergo a proper clinical examination to be done by a Doctor who can catch many of the problems on your proper history and physical examination and can then guide for further investigations and treatment.
Blood- complete blood picture, kidney functions tests, blood sugar fasting and post-lunch,
Urine- routine,microscopy, culture and sensitivity ( before start of antibiotic)
Ultrasonography of abdomen., X-ray of the chest and so on.
The problem will be diagnosed and to get further treated as per the findings on the reports.
