I am an energetic 59 year old male, with random severe pain in knees or elbows. Small "nodes" are often discovered on lateral and rear knee tendons when pain is present. Elbow pain is acute and more prevalent with left than right elbow (I'm right-handed). Cholesterol and blood tests are well within limits. Tests for cysts, ligament tearing, and such are negative. Some arthritic build-up is present in the knees which will require scoping some day, none of which explains the elbow tendon pain issues, and randomness of joint pain all around. The pain is causing sleep and exercise loss. No history of this condition in the family. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Try taking Hylaronic acid
You can buy it in the vitamin aisle at Wal Mart.
It helped my unexplained aches and pains of my muscles and bones.
Potassium at bedtime may help too.

Do you get enough calcium and magnesium?

Tendon pain can be treated effedtively with glucosmine/condtroitin supplement. Available in health food stores and dosage is by weight. If you are losing sleep because of pain, I would suggest an anti-inflammatory. Joint pain caused by arthritis will definitely reflect on tendons as well. So, you treat one thing, that is the arthritis, which will reflect on the other.
