I get pains everywhere..lol. but yes I get that weak achey pains in my but and legs all the time

Do you know why?

no idea... several years ago I had blood work done by my gp doc and it was suspect for lupus... a few months after I went to a rheumotologist who specializes in it, and redid more bloodwork and it came back negative for lupus so who knows..

I was on high doses of steroids throughout the years and ended up with terrible pain in both my knees.  It was diagnosed to be Avascular Necrosis (AVN) caused by the steroids.  I just had my knees replaced last year because of it.

Wow Leanne! I hope your new knees are good.

Pouchomax, I think it can be difficult to determine when to see a doctor or not. So many small pains here and there but generally I am living a good and happy life

Yes and no...(other than the result of an accident last year) I usually get pain if I am very dehydrated...that is a tell for me or if my legs feel as if they weigh  1000lbs each...or swelling due to salt abuse, toxicity or overuse (I walk a lot)...also I get pain from inactivity...yes, not moving and not walking makes things worse for me...getting up from bed or the sofa after long periods of inactivity is really hard...but once I have been walking for a while things tend to loosen up and the pain lessens.

It is a balancing act or keep the salt down but not too low, walk but not too much, stretch but just enough, strength build the knees (they are killing me with the Tens electrostimulation machine and weights)...and keeping hydrated.

Are you taking a TNF blocker? It could be from that.
