Is there anybody who have burning feeling in all jointscat night

Posted , 4 users are following.

I was told by the doctor that I have seronegative RA. I do not have many typical symptoms yet but what I have is horrible burning sensation in all my joints at night. It wakes me up around 1 am and does not let me sleep till 4-5 am. I feel terrible next day. It happened every night and it is very difficult to deal with. I can not find such symptoms anywhere in Internet. Is there anybody who has the same symptoms?

    Hi Irina, I have the burning sensation in hands and feet (it's awful eh!) I was sent for a bone scan and it revealed high inflammation in those areas. My feet feel as though they have been sunburnt inside and my feet are hot and dry (hands too). I also have a sensation like I'm wearing stockings on my feet, it's hard to describe the sensation but it started to get worse and moved further up my legs. I was sent to a neurologist who found nothing wrong with the nerves but when I was finally diagnosed with RA the meds (MTX and a biologic) reduced it. I have now been taken off the MTX because of liver damage, I am still on Actemra biologic but the sensations have come back and have been advised to take  Predislonone for a while which I'm not happy about.

    Talk to your Rheumatologist as it sounds like inflammation for you too. Good luck.

      I definitely have burning in one foot and ankle quite frequently.   Sometimes it feels like it's pins and needles.   I also have seroneg.  RA.   B/C it's only 1 area I have found that ice pack to the area helps at times.   I am on a biologic so it is not as bad as it was before but I know what you are talking about.   I see the doctor next month and plan on asking him about the burning.    I hope you can get on something that helps you.
