I am 66 years old and have had the diagnosis of RA for 5 years.
I have been working with a flair, taking my prednisone and trying to just be normal. My son and daughter in law are coming home with a new baby today and I have been helping some with my 3 year old grandson.
The flair is 4 days old and today? I woke up with a head cold. 😑
Do you find flairs usually happen before a virus or infection?
Is this just a fluke?
I am only on Hydroxychloroquine and have prednisone to take 3 to 5 days if I have a bad flair.
Motrin and/or Tylenol help my pain.
Do you find sickness usually means a flair too?
Many thanks,
Julie Torrens
