Guest guest Posted September 24, 2008 Report Share Posted September 24, 2008 Everything WILL get better. When I have this fatigue I just have to listen to my body and rest. I have two kids also and feel bad when I have to rest but sometimes I just do. But it doesn't last longer than a couple days usually. Hang in there. [ ] Fatigue!!! I am battling a lot of fatigue right now. What have you done to help get some energy? I have to take several rests during the day and even then it doesn't mean I'll have energy for when my kiddos get home in the afternoon. We're still working on getting my pain under control as well ... will everything get better when we finally find the right combination of meds??? TIA!!

Guest guest Posted September 25, 2008 Report Share Posted September 25, 2008 KD, I personally find that the fatigue is the worst part of RA for me. At one time, I could not go for more than 2 hours without a rest. It DOES get better. Enbrel made the difference for me. I am still puzzled as to why my doctor waited 18 monts after my diagnosis to start me on it. Remember that pain is exhausting also. Hang in there, it will get better!!!
