  1. Sorry to hear you are having these difficulties Brandy1976. Night time is certainly a problem for many in the community. In this article one of our contributors discusses this topic, with some tips/strategies: https://rheumatoidarthritis.net/living/toss-turn-sleep/. Also, if you feel you RA is not well controlled, you may want to ask your doctor if your treatment regimen should be adjusted. Best, Richard (RheumatoidArthritis.net Team)
