slight pain in, hands arms, but of late has been diagnised of brucellosis could it be the cause or there is another complication

Hello Jane,
Only a careful examination of your hands and neck can determine whether the pain is related to the brucellosis, or something quite different.

You could have arthritis in the fingers, a rotator cuff syndrome, or frozen shoulder, or many different musculo-skeletal conditions.

But that brucellosis will really undermine your health. Stay on the medication until you are properly over it, follow your doctor's orders.

I hope this contributes.
