Guest guest Posted June 7, 2008 Report Share Posted June 7, 2008 Hello Folks, I am a relatively new member and have been lurking and learning for about 8 months, since I was diagnosed. Thank you all for sharing your stories, I feel I am much more informed than had I just read the medical literature. I am 47 years old and have what I consider a moderate case of P (mostly confined to my scalp) and a mild case of PA (only 2 misshapen finger joints). I have been using NSAIDs to control stiffness and am trying to hold off on the DMARDs and biologics for as long as possible. The fatigue though is the most troublesome symptom for me. I have 2 questions that you folks might be able to help me with. Do mild cases of PA tend to remain mild? Do the DMARDs and or biologics help alleviate the fatigue? Thanks in advance for any answers you can offer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
