RA and Fibro

I was diagnosed in April. For me, the pain and inflammation had been dealt with easily with steroid shots in wrists and ankles and hql (plaquinel here in the US). Still, I'm so very tired. Rhuemy added fibromyalgia to the list and 20 mg Prednisone. I'm now almost done wroth the 20 day titrated round. I feel human again! And nervous that the exhaustion will return. If you are ra and fibro, What works for you?
