Knee weakness

I have RA and have been on meds for around 5 yrs. In the last month I have weakness in both knees that comes and goes while walking. Has anyone else have this issue?


  1. Since RA is often expressed as a bilateral condition, it is not surprising that if one knee started to fail eventually the other would. However to be fair, it may very not be related. I suggest you consult your rheumatologist. They would be the best source to make an evaluation.

    1. Is it possible you also have OA? Rheumatologist is best bet.
      And it goes without saying that keeping excess weight off is a must! 😀
