Symptoms decrease when ill
I am currently sick. And as with every other time my body is fighting something else, the pain and stiffness is pretty much gone. I can move and bend like a regular person. It's wild. Anyone else get this?

Yep, and even sometimes after vaccinations (the first few COVID shots were wonderful!). I love the few golden days when you're getting better from the flu or whatever, but the symptoms haven't kicked back in yet, and you feel just great! It's how I first knew I wasn't just tired/sore for random reasons, but it was an autoimmune thing. Because otherwise why would I be thinking of having the flu like a pain holiday?
