Fatigue

A lot is said about RA fatigue . I’m just curious, are there any of you that DON’T struggle with it??

I used to feel fatigue when I was in the middle of active flares but not anymore. I have been in remission for 5 months. My daily regimen - pharmaceutical quality CBD isolate oil, 50 to 100 mg a day (It changed my pain that I now distribute it in doctor’s offices and in my health facility), omega 3 from algae, turmeric, D3, Plaquenil. I am afraid to even say it out loud but I haven’t experienced fatigue in several months. I know this disease will have many curve balls so I am thankful for every pain free day.

Fatigue is such a huge part of RA...... and yet it doesn’t seem to be addressed by most Drs??
I have heard many times if RA pain is under control, so should be the fatigue. But I really don’t find this to be the case!
What does anyone else think???

My inflammation markers went down ( I believe due to me changing my diet - no gluten, sugar, dairy, beans, nuts, legumes, alcohol, diet coke, and no LIFE).... yet my exhaustion is still overwhelming. I can't make it thru an 8 hour day... most of the time I max out at 4 hours before I'm down for the count. Has anyone else brought their inflammation markers down and yet still feel like crap? My knees swelling up and the heat in them has gone down..... but I am so exhausted that it's debilitating. Problems with low back pain due to bone on bone doesn't help.

I experience fatigue. I have found that as soon as I need to take naps, on a regular basis, if I load up with enzymes by eating a lot of alfalfa and mung bean sprouts, along with a ton of raw spinach and kale, that my energy levels increase a lot. I should probably be more consistent, to avoid lapses in energy; however, I get tired of all the 'greens' LOL
