Polymyalgia Rheumatica – Symptoms & Causes

Fatigue

Many people with polymyalgia rheumatica often report unusual fatigue and exhaustion. This is actually a very common symptom in most inflammatory diseases. In general, it stimulates the immune system to attack your own body cells rather than foreign invaders. Thus, your body will consume more energy than usual and make you feel extremely tired. Sleeping or resting is not enough to help you recover. Instead, it is important to seek medical attention and suitable treatment options from your healthcare provider. [3]
