Hi. It's quite possibly due to arthritis plus the fact that u don't sleep well may make u tired in the morning,irritable and cause loss of appetite
I suggest 1 tablet of Muscle relaxant e.g Flexon every day at night just before bed.
Start off with 500mg 3-4 times a day and then taper to 250 mg after 2 weeks.Max dosage allowed is 750 mg 3-4 times a day
Please make sure u don't have liver disease or porphyria before taking the medication
