Guest guest Posted September 18, 2007 Report Share Posted September 18, 2007 Hi Everyone, I am new to the group. I never even thought of looking for a support group because I have been so involved in dealing with Mom and her Alzheimer's and being her caregiver that I haven't taken such great care of myself for the past 7 years. I was DX about 4 years ago. I am now on Methotrexate and folic acid and also have Meloxicam and prednisone if I need it, but I really try not to take it... I have good days and bad days and some very bad days when I have a flare-up. But, I am always tired. I have blood work done and it checks out ok, they say. I could sleep all day. I just feel exhausted. I just can't believe that this can all be from having RA. I know other people that say they have it and they don't seem to be so tired...I am 57....by the way... Do you think it's the meds? Or just the disease? Any ideas would be appreciated... Thanks, Diane aka Carol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
