Article Thin Ice

I appreciate the article as I also question whether my symptoms are real or in my head. I often feel tired or I might say fatigued. It is a weird and different tired than I experienced after working all day when I was younger. My hands, feet and ankles ache but most if the time my whole body aches. It may last a day but never much longer. Stress also triggers the same symptoms.

I assume this is an RA flare, but often question myself.

Any advice or anyone else experiment the same.

  1. you're definitely not alone! I know a lot of our community members also feel that RA fatigue that is a different type of fatigue than one might typically expect, not to mention the body aches and joint pains. As you mention wondering about flares, I wanted to share this article with you, https://rheumatoidarthritis.net/what-is-ra/ra-flare. And hopefully some of our community members can also chime in and share their experiences with you here. I hope that helps give you some insights, but please reach out anytime. Sending you gentle hugs. -- Warmly, Christine (Team Member)
