Guest guest Posted April 25, 2008 Report Share Posted April 25, 2008 I have been worrying about this a lot, I see some have mentioned here struggling with this too... how many of us deal with this? I notice constant fatigue... I can't do anything and I feel so depressed about this. I feel mentally and physically tired in huge proportions. I have been officially diagnosed with RA for nearly two years, though it took a year to find a Rheumatologist that took it seriously. All my blood work and symptoms said RA, but the first doctor my GP sent me too didn't believe it. (I have no idea why). I'm on mtx injection, sulfasalzine, and hydroxychloroquin. It has really cut my pain down, but my feet still always hurt. But I am ALWAYS tired, I can't get myself to do anything! Where I used to be a mover and shaker, now I sit most of the time, and have to lie down a couple times a day. Some days my ankles, knees, and hands hurt or mostly just ache, but I can't see how that would be tireing! Especially since I am getting so sedentary! Does the disease process itself do this, or what? How many of you out there deal with this daily? I think I'm in a terrible cycle... feel worn out, feel like I can't do anything, feel depressed, so I feel more worn out! Thanks in advance for input!
