Guest guest Posted August 21, 2001 Report Share Posted August 21, 2001 I am just curious to know how many out there also experience bouts of daily joint pain? My joint pain is mostly in my elbows, wrists, and ankles. It seems to come and go throughout the day, but I will have increased pain if I have been walking or standing too long and/or become overtired. I do not know if this is a chiari symptom that most experience or if I am still having joint pain from my dx of Fifths Disease back in April 01. (For those that do not know - Fifths Disease is a childhood disease that may cause a runny nose and rash in children; however, when adults get this disease it can cause joint pain for a period of 2 weeks up to 2 years, or so I have read.) My Rheumatologist tested me for the Human Parvo Virus B6 which is the cause of Fifths and my test results came back elevated 4 times the norm. I would appreciate hearing from any others that also experience joint pain and what if any medication that seems to help. Thank you in advance for your input and knowledge.
