I have been to a rheumatologist he said my ana tests came back elevated. Also did a bone scan and told me I have osteoporosis which I figured because my mother had it. So I said something about my back hurts in the same way hers did. He told me osteoporosis doesn't hurt. I know it does because my mother was not a complainer but after a while it was debilitating for her. But are what I described some of the symptoms?
