Rheumatoid Arthritis

Having recently been diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis in joints (hands ,knees being the worst )
Just put the aches and pains down to old age ,wear and tear previously
Am now on DICLOFENAC SODIUM 50 mg tabs 3 times daily only started them 10 days ago not looking for an instant improvement ,
What I'm finding is this bursting into tears ,weepy episodes that suddenly occur (no rhyme nor reason )
Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this with this medication ,or have I finally lost the plot
Apart from a large growth being removed 18 months ago
Fit n healthy ,not on any other medication
Any input gratefully received
Thank you

Oh Norma, I know nothing about the medication you are on, just want to give you big cuddles and hugs.

Norma,maybe a side effect of the medication or result of having the condition. Either way you shouldn't have to go through this added burden. Might be worth having a chat with your doctor,explain how you're feeling. Chances are there's a simple solution and it can sorted. I so hope so.((( hugs)))
