Newly diagnosed RA/Sjogrens and long term osteoarthritis
Hi. I've had OA for many years but have recently been diagnosed with RA/Sjogrens which has been a bit of a shock. I'm no longer very mobile as my hips and back are affected and my life has changed quite suddenly. How do you all cope? I'm finding methotrexate tabs are making me nauseous now and I feel exhausted so much of the time. Feeling depressed and sorry for myself ☹️
