My dad was diagnosed with it. The doctor told me it was severe joint pain but lacking the inflammation that marks out arthritis of its various types. He used to get it in his elbow joint but the pain used to spread out from there up his arm. That can happen with arthralgia apparently.

interesting. I had been diagnosed with this over a year ago and was givn pain killers for it. it affects all my joints but only when im doing something repetitive, like typing for too long my fingers hurt, walking too far my joints hurt, its the same with everything even working out can be restricted due to the pain im in, it stops be from applying for some jobs cos I know I  wont "hack it".

i'd not heard of it before and nobody ive mentioned it too since being diagnosed has either, the doctor told me that it was early stages before arthritis?
