Two of the Best Things in Years!

I have been an RA sufferer for over 30 years (only about 15 of those were correctly diagnosed). My flares have caused me to have both hope and a left knee replacement and also right hip repair for a dislocation. There are two improvements that I have made in the last year that have made an incredible difference in the way I'm feeling.

First class mattress

The first is in investing in a great adjustable bed with a first class mattress. It was far more reasonable than I expected and AAAAAHHH! There is nothing to compare with a good night's sleep.

Hemoglobin

The second is that if you are suffering from chronic fatigue have your doc take a good look at your hemoglobin. Anemia often accompanies RA and when that is addressed what a difference it makes all around! Good luck and be well.
