As per my clinical experience, the issue of multiple body site pain with swelling and headache do indicate non organic cause more likely. The most common possibility involves fibromyalgia condition with intermittent exacerbations via various issues. However, a detailed and comprehensive history with physical examination of all body systems are mandatory part of evaluation before coming to conclude list of differential diagnosis.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
