Hello, The headache that you describe is suggestive of tension type headache, which is a benign type of headache, related to psychological stress. Regarding the muscle and joint pain, I would recommend performing some tests (if you have not performed them yet): - Complete blood count, PCR, ESR for inflammation - RF plasma levels - Fibrinogen plasma levels - Vitamin D and vitamin B12 plasma levels - Magnesium and calcium plasma levels You should discuss with your doctor on the above tests. Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further. Regards, Dr. Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
