HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

Addison's disease is due to a low level of hormones from the adrenal cortix. It can cause a variety of symptoms including muscle weakness, depressed mood, fatigue, low blood sugar.

It more causes muscle weakness rather than pain so it is not likely the cause of your symptoms but if you wish to be sure, there are tests that can be done to determine if this condition is present.

I hope this helps
