I'd like to know more about this myself. I've had pinpoint red rashes over
half my torso, but they didn't itch, swollen joints that made bending my
right knee difficult and severe back pain and the same in my rib cage where
neither sitting or standing made any difference. I recently also experienced
the same pain in area of my left kidney. No fevers though. The joint pain may
last a few hours or a few days, but thankfully it does go away. In a way,
it's a relief to know someone else has experienced the same odd symptoms
along with having Hashi's. I hope we both can find some answers.

Thankfully, I'll be seeing an new Endo this coming Tuesday and maybe he'll
get my Armor dosage increased...perhaps that will help.
