are there other symptoms?

My hands are achy along with my back and feet. anyone else have similar symptoms? I have mentioned my achy hot feet to the doctor which are quite painful but the doctor just checked that my blood flow was good to my feet which it was and that was it and now I feel like a hypochondriac if I bring it up again. I am only 48 so still have a lot of living to do and am not ready to let pain rule my life...
