Thanks nvsmom and janpell. I usually feel my best when I haven't eaten for several hours. I'm on a mission to gain weight though, so I've been eating as often as possible. Usually when I finish a meal, I feel it in the wrists first. Some days are better than others, but the popping is always there even on the good days. I've gotten to the point that I...

They haven't been able to explain it which is why I'm reaching out to this community. However Irish, they didn't say it wasn't a rheumatic condition. Well, SOME (I've seen four different ones) have said I don't have arthritis. One said I have inflammatory arthritis and that he could feel inflammation in my joints. The initial rheumatologist I saw said...

I never said neither of those things. I said I had difficulty lecturing when I was experiencing the jaw popping, and I never said it wasn't a big deal.

karen, I've seen numerous doctors and have been a pin cushion for blood work. I've had a joint scan and bone scan. Those were both done a while back though, and this all started two years ago. So I'm not sure what an x-ray would show today on the different joints. The last time I asked about it, there were a few people who gave some good feedback. One person...

I move all the time. I teach fourth grade and I am constantly on my feet and moving. I've also been in a great deal of pain over the last two years while working and wondered if I can continue as my symptoms progress. It's very difficult to stop stressing when you're in pain all the time and symptoms are getting worse. I've been doing yoga daily for the last...

Thanks for the John Hopkins link. Have seen it many times, and it is not describing my particular condition. This is not normal popping that comes from lack of motion. Irish I'm not sure how many times I need to explain this or if I'm simply not explaining it clearly. My bones SNAP. This isn't crackling like when you rise out of bed. My wrist want to...

There is pain associated with the popping. I had difficulty lecturing to my class when the jaw popping went on. My hips hurt almost daily from the clicking in them, and when the knee popping gets bad, it is painful. When my wrists pop, they don't generally hurt, but in feels uncomfortable and they feel as if they are locking up at times. Sometimes with a...

I posted about my issues with joint popping a while back, but I wanted to try and again to see if I would get any more responses. Does anyone have chronic joint popping? It started with my wrists and shoulders. I had it a while in my jaw but it went away. However, it never stops in the wrists and shoulders and progressed to my knees, hips, and now neck. Once...

My symptoms are VERY similar to yours, and I've been almost down the same path. 19 months after the severe joint pain started, I still do not have GI issues that cause stomach or intestinal pain. My biggest problem is that my popping seems to be progressing to other major joints (mainly my knees right now). But I go out and eat at Jason's Deli and have their...

I really wonder if I'm undiagnosed Celiac. I've been off gluten for over a year now, and when I had my upper endoscopy done, I'd been off for about 7 months. My villi looked great according to my GI doctor who performed the biopsies. Mayo also said my genetic blood test they did came back absent for Celiac genes/pairs (can't remember). He did say that the...

foam, thank you for this information. How did you go about learning of your B12 deficiency? My gastroenterologist (who is apparently the best GI doctor in Austin) is the one who discovered the redness in my stomach when he did my upper endoscopy. He said is was gastritis and didn't really know what could be done about it. He also said my villi looked good...

I've been told by four rheumatologists that I don't have arthritis. But, I have severe joint pain if I eat certain foods. Now that I've managed to reduce the joint pain through diet, this popping is taking over. It's like everything is getting loose. There is an autoimmune response going on that is causing this. I'm worried it's degenerative. My shoulders...

Thanks. Really don't understand why this popping condition is so rare. Very frightening.

When you say IgG, are you referring to something like this? https://www.xymogen.com/products/product-detail.aspx?pid=84
