I have RA (Rheumatoid Arthritis) in all my joints. The one thing that can stop me in my tracks is fatigue. It can be very difficult to manage this symptom.

What does RA Fatigue do?

Some days, I can easily get tired quickly throughout the day. People tell me everyone gets tired, which is true. RA Fatigue is different. It is like dealing with a dying device battery after using it for a few hours it needs to be plugged in.

I wake up in the morning with a lot of energy and then by the afternoon, my energy is draining away like a dead battery. Then I’m exhausted. There are times that I pushed through the fatigue to get things done before I take a nap.

Treatment for RA Fatigue

The best way to deal with RA Fatigue is to have the RA under control by medicine. That’s what I have learned. Taking a nap, when I need it. If there are tasks that must get done I pushed through the fatigue, and then rest afterward.

Other people with Rheumatoid Arthritis have their strategies for dealing with fatigue. For me taking a nap helps.

If you are battling RA Fatigue and nothing is helping you to manage your symptom, please talk to your rheumatologist.

Affordable Housing. Click on the link to read my blog post. Like and share too. Thank you.

Scour the news for an entirely uninteresting story. Consider how it connects to your life. Write about that.

Affordable Housing.

Recently, I read a news article about apartment complexes in the works or approved by my local government. I asked myself, where are affordable homes being built at? The only answer is expensive homes are being built.

Making rent prices for houses and apartments so outrageous. The shortage of places to rent is causing rent to be higher. There seem to be no answers in sight. So the question is: are we heading where there will only be apartments available?

It is a conversation we need to be talking about with our family, relatives, friends, and coworkers. People are afraid to discuss this topic.

We start by talking to our local leaders, voicing our concerns, and asking questions.

People believe they need to do something huge for someone. That isn’t the case. A simple gesture can change someone’s day. Click on the link to continue reading. Please like and share too, and thank you.

Write about a random act of kindness you’ve done for someone.

What’s wrong with our society is that we don’t do the little things. We don’t want to sacrifice our time because we don’t want to be inconvenienced. We want to believe the lie someone else can help that person. The opportunity passes, and we deny ourselves to make a difference in their lives and ours.

People believe they need to do something huge for someone. That isn’t the case. A simple gesture can change someone’s day. Simply listening to someone who’s venting about a personal problem or checking on your friend or loved one.

To be honest, I don’t know how to answer this question. To read click on the link.

How would you describe yourself to someone who can’t see you?

To be honest, I don’t know how to answer this question. If someone can’t see me because that person is blind, how do I describe a disability? I can’t. I have no words.

I do have deformities in my joints from battling Rheumatoid Arthritis since I was a child. If that person wanted to feel my fingers to understand my joint damage. Perfectly fine with me.
