Hello Joan
You sound pretty rough at the moment
Maybe you are havinga flare at the moment - I tend to feel exhausted by doing nothing much then too
I wish you luck with your scan and hope you get something conclusive out of it so they can treat you.
you take care

This is normal i have had ra for over 8years and i can sleep an awful lot.
Today i got up at 7.00am went to rheumy came home and guess what fell asleep. that was after a full 9 hours lay in bed although my sleep is often broken so that maybe why.

All i can say is rest is important when you have any form of illness.
why dont you have a word with your gp and see if he can give you something to give you a bit of a lift.

good luck and chin up

I keep falling asleep as soon as I sit down. I put my head, next thing I know, I've missed all the tv prog I was wanting to look at.
Even first think in the morning. Just a general feeling of sleepiness

Know what you all mean.

Hello Its rotten isn't it. Thats how mind began a few years ago. I'd wake up feeling tired and achy and when I stood up my back clicked all the way up! :shock: It went on to become painful and here I am today :?

Souinds like you're having a really bad patch and maybe a chat with your GP? They might change your medication, which sometimes helps. Plenty of rest and tlc though may help a lot! Hope you soon feel a bit better. Love Sue

Joan hello, You sound at the end of your tether. I wish you all the best for Monday.

Once you`ve had your scan, perhaps you should make an appointment with your GP. Let him know that your quality of life is suffering, and see what he will offer in the way of pain relief. You could ask about physio or a pain clinic. Also, he may suggest injections. You did say that he told you to wait to see what the scan revealed.

Once again, good luck for Monday, and let us know how it goes.....Ange.

Hi Joan,

Sorry your feeling so rough just now, I really hope they will help you once the scan over. Ask them to mark your results urgent and beg them to if poss.

I think there would be a lot more they could do once they know what you have going on in side. I will keep my fingers crossed that soon you will be helped and am sending you a cyber ((( ))) and well I wish I could help. Take care, Cris x

Hello Cris.
Thank you for your help.i'm looking forward to the scan i hope i will know then what's wrong.
i take glucosamine and c and ginger because the doctor said there was nothing else to try as everything did not work any more.
i try to laugh every day.
i hope your pain's are not to bad.
