Is it normal for all of the things you sprained/broke years ago to start hurting again?

I feel every hurt everywhere. I am the best weather meter ever, lol.
I just had a total ankle replacement a year ago, I broke my ankle in 1967.
I had 3 surgeries over the last 10 yrs before I had my ankle replacement. Had my 4 smaller toes fused.
Besides fibromyalgia, I also have IBS w/CC.
Hypoglycemia, Hypothyroidism, High Blood Pressure. Rosacea, Psoriasis(4th stage) is very painful. Ecerise induced asthma, Raynaud's syndrome in my extremities. Fiberous Breasts, Endometrosis, Psoriatic arthritis, Rheumatoid arthritis, Osteoarthritis, Interstitial cystitis of bladder, Hiatal Hernia, fatty liver due to my weight gain over the last 16 years, Benign Tremors, GERDS, Barretts Esophagus, Spondylolisthesis in coccyx bone, lower lumbar pain due to exaggerated curve. Veinal reflux disease in my lower legs. Blurred vision, tingling in hands and feet. Migraines.
I am not complaining, but I am thankful I can get out of bed every morning. I am surprised I remembered most of the auto immune diseases I have. I dislike taking all the medicine. I dislike being forgetful. I dislike chronic dry eyes and mouth. I just want be me again, not this forgetful stuttering, tired person.
I am on @Cymbalta and Gabapentin, and Flexeral for my Fibromyalgia, plus 11 other meds.
My mantra: Everyday is a good day, no matter what it brings, I am blessed.

I'm an amazing weather vane. My ankle I severely sprained, my knee I twisted and my thumb I broke all start aching ahead of most major weather changes. I've found if I can wrap ankle/knee with a compression brace or ace bandage, I manage some relief till the weather event comes and goes. Not sure if that works for everyone but through trial and error I found it helps me.
