Hello folks G P rang this morning to say my shed load of blood tests were all o.k. why is it then I feel so unwell no energy and although getting a faire amount of sleep in the night I can hardly get out of bed around 7ish in the morning.Iam to speak to rhumy soon only thing I can think is to ask her to up presislone to 6mg unless there are any new drugs on the market that I can tolerate.thanks for reading better days for you all

Did they check things like Vit D and Vit B, they are both common causes. I use a sublingual Vit B complex as PPIs reduce absorption. My latest bloods now put me at top of the range, and energy levels much better. Unfortunately most Drs would say fatigue is the one symptom impossible to solve.

have a look at the NRAS website about Fatigue: nras.org.uk/product/fatigue... talk to the Rhuematologist - I have, over many years, found that the fatigue is worst when the inflammation is highest. But I can also get depressed (and not wanting to do stuff) about having a chronic condition and despondent about the future - recognising that usually helps me to sort out some activity or action to improve that.

Good news! How are your iron and Vitamin D levels? I was feeling very tired but blood was okay. Dr tested for these and I was very low. Now taking supplements and feel much better. Speak to your doc🌻
