... my muscle mass was decreasing in my arms - seemed to wake up one day and notice my arms were thinner than they'd been for years.
I lost about half a stone without trying.
My eyebrows and leg hair seemed to grow much less (and eyebrows started greying!).
All this was about 9 months ago - maybe longer - and may not be related to RA but I suspect they are. Just rambling really so not looking for answers ... a wierd condition this :shock:

Don't worry, luvie, those symptoms are the least of our worries. More than likely not related to RA ..... just getting a little older every year.

If you can lay down at night knowing in your heart that you made someone's day just a little bit better, you know you had a good day.0 -
Hi Elna, I'm not worried - just musing! I know the muscle wasting is down to the RA (I was told that early on) and the other two are a bonus ha ha!
