❤ thank you Dr. Diana
Thank you 🙏🏻
Thanks dr. I learn a lot from you how I can manage my RA.
Thank you 🙏🏻
Thank you Dr ❤💚 thanks to your channel I am learning how to manage my ra.
That's wonderful to hear! I'm so glad my channel is helping you manage your RA.
I have had RA over 10 yrs and the fatigue will come and go. I walk a lot and just keep moving. I try to go to bed extra early and get extra sleep when I have these bad fatigue episodes.
Excellent advise!Thank you for watching my channel!

Extra sleep always helps me :) I've stopped trying to fight it.
Hello, I have a new case, my RF factor was over 650, my sed rate was 60. My doctor says I have severe RA. I am on methotrexate and I was fatigued before and I still am. After sleeping off and on all day yesterday, I slept through the night last night, woke up this morning and felt "off." I drove a mile to get a cup of coffee and a breakfast sandwich. i ate the sandwich and had about 4 drinks of the coffee, and I couldn't wait to lay down. I lay down and slept 3 more hours. This is ridiculous. Does eating food make this disease worse? Seems like maybe the energy to digest food takes you from low energy to empty energy instead of providing some oomph.
@@alexstokowsky6360 I feel you! My RA factors aren’t that level but I get super fatigued randomly I’ve been doing so good trying to gain weight but today I’ve only ate dry cereal and 2 ensures. I hate the feeling I can’t do it I try so hard to be positive daily I haven’t cried in days and now I can’t help but feel scared all over again. I was diagnosed at the end of last month
Thank you ❤
You're welcome 😊
is it possible that i have RA? im just 39 y old still single. im suffering in pain with my joiints. my palm and toes are always hot like a fever
I got diagnosed in my 21st year after experiencing symptoms of stiffness and pain in joints and back for *one and half years* which soon deteriorated into unbearably debilitating fatigue and overall body ache. My only initial indication was the detection of a positive HLA B27 gene which my earlier doctors overlooked causing my condition to deteriorate so much. So have a complete blood scan including ESR and anti CCP, even though in case the Rheumatoid Factor might return negative but if you are going through so much agony, then the possibility of the aforementioned gene detection can shed light on whether you are potentially developing RA or not especially if there has been a genetic history in your family, either symptomatic or asymptomatic. I shared my story because I think there has been a misconception that only people of 40s or 50s age group are susceptible to such arthritic or rheumatic disorders. However, the truth is that in the recent years since the pandemic, there has been a rise in autoimmune diseases, which makes sense because intense viral infection are said to activate the gene causing this misery. I hope you find relief soon. Please don't hold back from testing due to the age factor because as I said, post covid, no one is really safe from the odds of having a haywire immune system. My teenage sibling also got diagnosed a few weeks ago. Also just to be on safe side, keep having multiple doctors' recommendations about your test report in case your complaints are met with disbelief or misdiagnosis by the first or second doctor as that's what happened with me. I wish you all the best :)
Wish there was more, doing all that. How do I know if I need to add in more meds? or ways to get inflammation in better control?
thank you for watching my videos!
What about Brain fog and skips in your concentration.
Hi I’m wondering if this type of fatigue is normal with all types of rheumatic diseases? I have SAPHO and have extreme exhaustion that comes and goes. It started before any medications. Do you have any videos on the more rare rheumatic diseases? Thanks
yes, many autoimmune diseases can cause fatigue
I will post a new video soon!
Very nice and informative vlog 👍🌹
Thanks a lot
❤
Most RA medication just made pain and fatigue worse.
Are you serious 😭😭 ughhh idk what I’m supposed to do I’m losing weight fast lowest recently 88.8 pounds 🤦🏽♀️
doctor Diana must we take anti inflamatory meds every day or when we feel pain for while .what do advice about exercises for scianifica pain and hip pain?🙏❤
NSAIDs are dangerous to take daily, use them for short periods of time when needed
@@rheumatologistoncall thank you doctor❤🙏
@@rheumatologistoncall When OTC is pushed because no one really wants to treat pain you get stuck taking NSAIDS for weeks in a bad flair. Better pain management is necessary.
Please replay
In my hlab 27 report it said-positive
(The given sample may be homozygous for the hla-b27 allele.)
Test was done by flowcytometry method .
Should i should re test Hla b27?
No need to retest

I am at my wits end with my RA. I am tired (all pun intended) of living like this.
I'm sorry to hear that you're feeling this way. It can be tough to deal with RA.
Does chills and the feeling of fever come with fatigue?
yes, it happens
@@rheumatologistoncall Thank you from Honolulu
I don't know if anybody has the answer to this I hear so much about medications to take. But they're all bad for your liver. Sounds like a no-win situation here and take the medications. And it can ruin the inside of your organs what to do I don't know. Is anybody have any good answers for me today. I have had our RA. For a year. And just been taking ibuprofen for inflammation. In pain. Seems to help. But this also is bad for your liver.??????
It's tough when medications have potential side effects, but it's important to work closely with your healthcare provider to find the best solution for you.
