Hello,
Many of the symptoms you described could be Fibromyalgia, but I am curious to know what type of doctor you are seeing in May. Also can you describe the popping sound you are hearing in your arm? Which part of your arm are you hearing the sound?

hi, i'm 45 f i was dx with sluggish hypo-thyroid /goitors which causes fibromyalgia symptoms,on synthroid 37.5 mcg alot of my pain is gone per sae, my dr found my vit d was dangerously low was on 50,000 iu my b12 is low, i am also exhibiting IBS/ celiac i'm gluten free now feel better but i'm growing fatty lipoma all over that r painful . stress which is my main staple, and coffee is wiping me out no hubby no bf to help balance out my budget so i am working non stop so my Dr said to slow down, blood test are normal yet my body says not, i am avoiding RX at all costs, too many bad side effects for my liking tried savelle 1 dose was enough NO WAY, lyrica NOPE cymbalta NO taking DHEA natural hormone estrogene testoserone read about it used for alot medical issues.. taking carnipure l carnitine  fights fat an amino acid, alot of fibromyalgia have food allergies and may not realise what is causing issues, i will use flexeril 2.5 mg break my 10 mg in 4pcs, my body hates medication. had bone spur on shoulder, tendonitis bursitis,arthritis it would pop and lock up, went to chiro for ultra sound and tens treatments, it helped but i had bone spur removed got frozen shoulder, using tens and u/s it helps me. so  this may help you? i shop here  holistichelp.net  /blog/fibromyalgia-relief-the-natural-way

Yes, this pain (not sure on the pop though) is quite common with fibromyalgia.  Fibro tends to go in waves and with treatment you can get periods of reduced or no pain but it is a chronic disease that stays with you.  Ensure you also get your vitamin D and iron checked as low counts can also contribute to your fatigue.
