Worse pain with weight loss

[Guest guest]

Have any of you who have had a signficant weight loss found that it helped

with PA? I've lost 30 lbs so far and I'm wondering when I'll feel better.

The fatigue is much worse. This last long weekend my significant other and

I spent at the beach where I was snoozing most of the time. He remarked

that my energy level is " in the toilet " . I'm getting adequate protein,

complex carbs, fruits and veggies. No wheat, no dairy, no red meat and very

limited nightshades which is making my naturopath very happy. drinking 100

oz of water a day. But my toes and my wrist are just aching. My little toe

feels like it is sticking straight out perpendicular to my foot but it's

not. It looks entirely normal. No swelling, no heat, no redness, just

aching. Same with my wrist. I'm trying to rationalize what could cause

this - -

[Editor's Note: (Relative) relief, due to weight loss, from pain is much more

likely to occur in weight-bearing joints than elsewhere. However: How quickly

did you lose the weight? If it was over a relatively short period, the process

itself (the weight loss) might be responsible for fatigue...)
