I am a pianist. I play the piano at Church on Sundays, both morning and night.
I have been on Wellbutrin for a couple of years now. I am having problems with muscles contracting in my back and my hands swell and my knuckles have red caps on them. This comes and goes. It does not seem to have a pattern except that I cannot sit or stand for long periods of time without a lot of pain.
My doctors want to schedule a day of tests for MS. I do not have any slurred speach or heavy limbs or balance problems other than the limp that I have with CP.
I went to my dad's doctor in Atlanta yesterday and he ran a ANA test, a sed rate and a RA test. He emailed me that they were all normal. He also did a lyme test. If it were lyme, it would be a late lymes, since I have not felt well in a long time. The results for the lyme test are not yet in. I have read that lymes is very hard to diagnose and does mimic MS in many ways.
Can anyone help me?

Wellbutrin could possibly cause arthritic symptoms. With consideration of your consistent piano performing, carpal tunnel should be ruled out. Compression gloves to be worn at night may be a possibility in treatment.
