... 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. :lol: More than likely not related to RA ..... just getting a little older every year.

    The happiest people don't have the best of everything. They just make the best of everything.

    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.

    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!
