You need to find out if it's your muscles or if it's your bones and joints. If it's your muscles it might be fibromyalgia; if it's your bones and joints it is arthritis I have both that's why I can't work right now because my pain comes and goes all different times of the day I can't even drive a car if I sit longer than 15 minutes my legs arms body everything but my head can fall asleep or give me pain when it falls asleep is numb like a dead person
