@bbk186 we are not doctors, so we are not allowed to diagnose anything.

From what you wrote, it sounds like what happened to my friend. He has PMR. Polymyalgia Rheumatica.
It’s an autoimmune disease that has systemic inflammation, pain and stiffness.

If you have PMR, your Rheumatologist can help you. Usually a low dose of Prednisone helps him.

Hope you find what you are needing to feel better.

Thanks. I'm currently seeing a rheumatologist and took sulphasalazine for 2 weeks which didn't help. I got a Humira shot and waiting to see its results.
