Sedentary lifestyle?: If your doctor has ruled out the many causes of joint pain; including a thorough workup for autoimmune, rheumatologic including Osteoarthritis, Fibromylalgia infectious disesase causes like Lyme, Dengue fever to name a few; metabolic causes Vitamin D deficiency, Cancer etc... which I assume they have. Then maybe it is time to start moving those joints and stretching the muscles improve function

Neuropathic pain: Make sure Lyme disease was ruled out. Cold agglutanins should be ordered. Does this happen more when your hands and feet get cold???? I'm sure they checked out Sjögren's syndrome. A Lupus panel should be ordered if not. Fibromyalgia is a diagnosis of exclusion once everything else has been ruled out. You may ask if a trial of Neurontin or Lyrica (pregabalin) is appropriate.
