RA Flare Symptoms

A myRAteam Member asked a question 💭
Lawrenceburg, IN

I would like to know what others experience when having a flare from RA. For me, I usually wake up so full of inflammation that I'm unable to move. And I have pain too. It takes awhile to work a bit of movement into my body. The only thing that helps has been Prednisone.

I will say that watching what I eat helps a lot. Nothing white!! No rice, bread, flour, white flour, sugar or anything like that. Make your own food so you know what is in there. I use Monkfruit when baking and it does not bother my joints. I re-do recipes so I can eat things and take all the crap out of them. I’m allergic to chocolate so I use unsweetened carob powder and chips. Nuts.com makes the best unsweetened carob chips and I’ve trie a lot of them. If anyone else is allergic to chocolate and sick of not being able to eat brownies let me know and send me your email and I’ll send it to you. I try and make my ground turkey vegetable soup every week, i put all my favorites veggies in it and I buy most of my spices at Trader Joe’s & Stater Bros. It’s not good when you are in pain and I certainly don’t like it when I’m in pain. Blessings to all of you!

Wishing everyone pain-free days and nights with peaceful sleep ( we can always hope..lol )
