Yes, it is terrible. I feel like I need 10 hours of sleep a night, and cannot think at work for the first couple of hours. The pain in my neck has been bothering me, so not sure if that is contributing. I have an appt at the end of the month for a cortisone shot. I hope that will help. But, yes, feeling exhausted all the time is exhausting in itself.

I saw my Rhumy this morning. She said the number 1 complaint with RA is fatigue, Recommended aerobic 20-30 min a day. I wish I had the time/energy. When I go hybrid I will have the opportunity to walk during lunch hour.

I am NOT trying to be a commercial, but if you have knee (or other problems-see website). This (expensive) sandal, has provided me with no cortisone shots for almost a year. Z-coil

Hi Sherry, fatigue is one of the most common things with RA. It can hit like a freight train and without needing a reason why. The only thing that works for me is naps, as much and as many as needed. I used to feel guilty about that but not anymore.

Hi Sherry - That sounds miserable. So sorry. Fatigue is part of RA. Rest and plenty of water may offer some relief.

it’s horrible fatigue it’s not normal tiredness & I tell my doc it’s like being hit by a bus or completely drained of energy
