Sleep

Sleep has become a funny thing for me since being dx with RA. I've written about it before on several occasions.The past month or so it's been a little more normal with more and more sleeping through the nights. However, lately my knee pain has been waking me up and it's pain in both knees which just sucks. It's currently 5am and I've been awake since about 3:45. Darla has been sleeping and snoring away at the food of my bed. Olive is snuggled up close next to my chest. I know Falling didn't help the knees but it seems like with the more I am doing the more they ache - which just sucks and frustrates me . It's that weird RA balancing act I have read about you need to be active to help your joints and rest of your body BUT you can't do to much or it hurts your joints. Eeeesh when I do more i also sleep better BUT then i often don't sleep as much because I'm awoken by some pain. It's no fun being tired and just laying awake
Because something in your body just throbs and aches - right now it's my knees and ankles --> I just want sleep!
