Likely not that,,,: These symptoms and signs point to another possible cause. It sounds like an autoimmune disease like lupus or rheumatoid arthritis. These ailments often present with fatigue and can involve the liver as well as the joints, especially lupus. Hepatitis, which can be sexually transmitted or by other ways, is also a possibility. It's best to see your doctor for tests and an exam. Good luck.
