Treat gout: I think i would treat you for gout symptoms even though your uric acid level is high normal range. There are a lot of conditions and even dietary issues that can give lower uric acid levels while you can have uric acid crystals in your joints causing severe joint symptoms. I would recommend a complete laboratory workup for the bone and muscle pain and lethargy. Don't let go of this.

Reduce weight. : If you are overweight, you should reduce your weight to normal range. If you snore in the night, you need have sleep study to rule out sleep apnea. You need simplify your medication use if you taking medications which might cause you fatigue. You need quit substance such as alcohol, marijuana or narcotics/benzo prolonged use if you did.
