Saw my internist today. Told him of all my symptoms but since he diagnosed me with arthritis in my neck a while back he believes it is a pinched nerve and gave me some muscle relaxers for the spasms in my legs and a few pamphlets about how to combat lower back pain. He also ordered some blood work. So far one test that is for inflammation (sed rate I think) came back normal. With Kaiser blood work results can be accessed through my account on the internet - pretty cool! He wants me to go back to my optometrist and get my eyes checked. I called them today and they wanted to know if I was having any problems because it has only been 1 1/2 years since my last exam. Told them I was having eye pain and they said I should see an opthamologist and that would be covered under my medical. So I will be calling my internist tomorrow and asking for a referral to an opthomologist (I have Kaiser).

I still have a horrible feeling about all of this. Something just 'aint right.:mad::confused:

I saw an opthamologist today through Kaiser. He spent about 15 minutes with me and after looking in my eyes said that it doesn't appear that I have any sort of disease going on. He said that eye pain can be caused by dry eye and suggested that I get some drops. I still have some jabbing pain in my eye, but it isn't constant like it had been. I am still feeling really tired, but thanks to the Relafen my legs don't hurt as much. I have started a log like someone on another thread suggested so that I can keep track of all of this. I asked the opthomologist if I could get an MRI and he said that my symptoms don't really warrant one. I have never been a sickly person or a hypochondriac, but I just don't feel like my normal self. Too much pain, achyness and twitches to ignore.

I totally agree with Polar. Keep pursuing it. A good PCP will help you through the dx process and is a great place to start. I wouldn't hesitate to get another opinion from another internist and/or PCP and even consider switching.
