I have RA since I was 2 and most days I feel good and actually before I knew I was pregnant I wasn’t getting stiff at night not realizing the cause. First few weeks my knee got inflamed BADLY and I couldn’t even bend it. As I’m typing this I’m in pain with my fingers and knee and “extra strength” Tylenol does not work for me. Drink turmeric or ginger tea it helps me wake up and also helps with the inflammation. Takes a few drinks for your body to adjust but it gets better. I have more good days than bad.
