Re: can get going anymore

" Good morning just need to ask does anyone else have a feeling of being

tired all the time, I just cant and dont want to do anything amymore. I

am just getting fatter and fatter every day. I did start Water Exercise

class twice a week and when I get home all I want to do is sit. I did

not even make my bed yesterday and for me that is not right. What Is

Wrong With Me? and how do I fix it? I take all kinds of meds and Enbrel

and I thing I am getting more tired then before. "

For me, this is sometimes worse than the pain. When I am in pain I can just

press on. I have dealt with pain most of my life, and *most* of the time I

can press on, but the fatigue hits me like a ton of bricks!! And in

addition to it putting me on the couch, or worse, in bed, it also is a HUGE

hit to my self esteem! Why the heck can't I just get up off this darned

couch? I will say, I started taking vitamins and that has helped

tremendously. And, no, I do not mean Centrum or the other store brands that

do you no good. Try a high quality vitamin, one that does fructose

compounding if you can. I do marketing for Melaleuca and their vitamins are

wonderful, but I have also heard GNC has some good ones too. Just know, you

will spend more than $5 for good vitamins, but if they help they are worth

it! If you feel no difference your vitamins are not working.

Love and Peace,

Janet, fatigue is a large part of RA, Fibro, and some of the meds for them.

For the last week, I've been pushing myself to install insullation and

sheetrock in our new kitchen area after not touching it for over a year. The

mistake I usually make is to push myself too far and then not be able to

finish the job. Of course, I need to because it's supposed to rain today and

I need to get stuff back inside, and to do that, I need to finish the job.

That's a fact of life for me, and I assume you and the others have the same

basic problem. I'd say a couple of days rest will do wonders for you, it

does for me.

My physolophy is that I will get it done on time, whatever that time may be.

It works for me. So the first thing I plan to do after lunch is take a nap

and think about things. Most thngs can wait.

and as pain free as they can,

I am the same way...but i think mine may be linked to depression considering

everthing that is going on... HUGS talk to your doc about it. I know some

meds do make you tired. the MTX makes me tired. take care.

I have a lot of empathy for you. Fatigue is a terrible thing to live

with, and is not generally understood by others. Sending healing

thoughts.

I feel that way too Sherry! The fatigue is terrible, and I especially relate to

the " getting fatter and fatter every day " part. I have been trying to lose

weight, but it is SO HARD! I can't even tell anymore if the being tired all the

time is a symptom of RA or b/c of the meds.. and the same with the weight gain-

is it because I am too tired and in pain to move or do the meds cause the weight

gain?! UGH!.. the dr. doesn't know either. Sorry.. just venting

frustrations... Kristi
