Hello Lorrie, you be your own advocate. They cannot tell you how to feel only you can tell them how you feel. If you are fatigued, make them listen. Tell them how it is affecting you. Do not sugar coat none of your issues even if you think it's small, tell them. Keep you a journal or put it in your notes on your phone, I do. I see whomever I need to see and make sure everyone work together. You got this, I got faith in you.

Taking vitamin B12 seems to really help my fatigue.

Fatigue with arthritis is very real and often one of the toughest symptoms to manage. Pacing daily activities, taking short breaks, and adding gentle movement like stretching or walking can help improve energy levels. It’s also important to address the emotional side, as fatigue and low mood often go hand in hand. Many people find patient support groups helpful too; for example, communities like Antardhwani offer shared experiences and encouragement.
