Cut back to very small, infrequent sweets, almost no bread, and no sugary drinks. You will cut down on brain fog and fatigue. Learn to use Stevia to sweeten things. Make sure you eat balanced meals, even if you have to eat veggies for breakfast.
Take little rests or naps when you have to, but don't sleep terribly long. Get time outside and do something active for at least 20 minutes most days.
My biologic medicine(Orencia) has doubled in price from $7,000 to $14,000 this year; thank goodness for Medicare and my United Healthcare (AARP plan) supplement. It makes me feel really good 12-14 hours a day. I can live with that. I wish you all well.
