What Causes Tiredness, Fatigue And Hair Loss While Treating Rheumatoid Arthritis?
I think that someone maybe poisoning me.I have a lot of health problems, but had been getting better, now I so tired, no energy, weak, and have lost a lot of hair.I when to doctor had all kind of blood test don t but I was gone from home for a week so did not eat drink or bath with the same products as here. My memory is getting back, I have always been (over) active. I have RA but have taken stem cells which help, but the lady that was here to help cook and care for me the amount of time she was here is when I got sick, losing all my hair, energy weak get so hot then cold sweat. is there anything that would be poison that could get out of my system in a week. If so what do I need to do?

I think you are on methotrexate for treatment for RA. it's a documented side effect of hair loss, bone marrow depression etc. i think no one is poisoning you. why don't you see a rheumatologist
