@JosephineO Breathlessness, I get so out of breath, wheezing and gasping when trying to do the slightest thing, it would be so nice to do the things I used to without having to stop and recover every few minutes.

The pain drives me nuts and being able to walk without pain. Take painkillers don't work.

I would definitely get rid of my low energy relating to rheumatoid arthritis.    It’s awful. It’ stops you being able to do most daily tasks. And makes you feel useless.

Constant tiredness and everyone thinking you'll feel ok if you have an early night!
