Default Any thoughts about these symptoms

Hi,

I've got a lot going on but I thought I'd post here to see if anyone has any experience with these symptoms. About 2 years ago, I noticed that when resting, I would get burning pain to both wrists which would radiate into the hands. I brought it to my doctors attention and they thought it was due to taking lipitor. I went off of it and the pain disappeared gradually. Lately, I have been getting this pain again and I'm not taking any rx statins, only a natural one called policosanol. Since I was diagnosed with FMS, I figured that this could also be associated with that and I've just recently discovered that I have a herniated disc at C5-6, so I seem to have a lot of overlapping stuff going on and its become increasingly difficult to tell what is related to what.

So, if this sounds familiar to anyone, please share or point me in a different direction please. Also note that two rheumatologists didn't find any indications of arthritis, via bloodwork or exam.

Thanks to all, Ellena
