Newbie here, just recently diagnosed with RA after being in now what I understand is a flare for the past 18 months.

Going through the angry, frustrated stage at the moment.

I used to be a hill/fell walker doing 15+ miles a day and think nothing of it, curling 3 times a week. I now cannot even hold a brush to sweep in curling and the fatigue is impossible. Now can walk just about 2 miles on a very rare day on the flat, but then exhausted for a week plus.

On MXT 22.5 mg weekly and folic acid 6 days a week. Next test on Monday when I will be going to 25mgs of MXT a week if everything is ok.
