heat in thighs

Hi, I am 54 year old female, blond, fair skinned, have gained quite a bit of weight, but I am not overweight.

I have burning heat in both thighs front only, also lower stomach. Comes on often late afternoon when I sit down or when I am in bed. Can last for hours. I don't sweat sometimes garlic smell underarms.

Often have icy cold hands or feet, mostly morning. Sometimes cold chills running down my back.

Swelling of the right knee come on suddenly after 2 years also right side of the body especially lower part. Treated with dandelion tea. Knee is still swollen, burning sometimes, worse with movement of any kind, better resting.
Unexplained pains in muscles, left hamstring, IT bands worse by touching, exercise.

I have achy joints, neck makes a cracking, crunchy noise when moving. Rheumatoid factor was positive but very low have not seen Rheumatologist yet. My doctor thinks is false/positive.

Frequent urination, sometimes with big amounts of clear urine, yellow in the morning, other times urge with hardly any urine or stop and go. Sometimes smelly can't compare smell.

I complain a lot of my ailments. I don't experience any happy feeling anymore used to be very bubbly.
Hungry all the time. Love eggs, bread, cheese, wine. Seem to get worse from sugar, fish. Craving for coffee and sweets which I try to stay away from.
Drink more in the morning, mostly water no ice hurts teeth.

Fall asleep easy but wake up after 3 or 4 hours around 1 am and often stay awake until 3 in the morning, than awake frequently. Sometimes sleep good after 5 am for an hour or two. Average about 6-7 hours often interrupted sleep.

Thank you
