Regardless of rheumatoid arthritis or not, please do what you can to get a good night’s sleep.

I even have used ear plugs and a comfortable eye mask, as well as lowering the thermostat. I haven’t used melatonin for awhile because it’s not been needed.

Exercise helps with sleep, too.

We have repair processes running while we sleep. It even helps cut down COVID and flu durations.

Maybe RA in the early stages causes shortened sleep periods.

I have RA and I slept very well both before and after so I don’t put much credence in this study.

Seven sleep-related traits were selected: short sleep duration, frequent insomnia, any insomnia, sleep duration, getting up, morningness (early-to-bed/up habit), and snoring.

Not sleep apnea? That's weird.

I have absolutely no problem falling asleep, insomnia is rare, and I never have to get up at night to urinate (age 70), but getting more than six continuous hours of sleep is almost impossible for me. I've been doing a lot of intensive yard renovation work with a lot of hard physical work the past three weeks, but it surprisingly hasn't helped my sleep. I think LED screens before bed are bad news, but I can't break the habit!

” A two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis using inverse variance weighted (IVW), MR-Egger regression, weighted median, and weight mode methods was used to assess the causal correlation between sleep disturbances and RA. “

Easy for you to say.

Maybe it's not, or not just, a short sleep cycle..
