Connective tissue: You are having "connective tissue" symptoms which may originate in your muscles, tendons, and finally your joints. Probably these symptoms are minor and you are "fixating" on them HOWEVER a complete phsical exam by your Primary Care Provider (PCP) and some simple blood tests (eg: Sedimentation Rate) are indicated ! Hope this helps! Dr Z

Most likely!: It seems more likely anxiety. please see your Doctor to rule out any other cause before we label it as anxiety!
