I AM FLARING RIGHT NOW MY RA IS CLASSIFIED AS SEVERE I JUST HAD TO COME OF MTX INJECTIONS ALLERGY I LIVE IN CANADA AND HAVE HAD AGGRESSIVE RA SINCE JULY BUT PROBLY AT LEAST A YEAR BEFORE THAT I HAD SIGNS I ALSO HAVE BEEN DIAGNOSED WITH FIBRO. I AM ON A NEW PILL AND AM GOING ONTO GOLD SHOTS IN 2 WKS. I HAVE TO TRY THE SMALLER DRUGS IN ORDER FOR MY EXTENDED MEDICAL PLAN TO COVER BIOLOGICS . ANYWAYS I AM ALREADY ON CANADIAN DISABILITY I HAVE STARTED PHYSIOTHERAPY AND STARTOCCUPATIONAL THERAPY NEXT WEEK . I HAVE BEEN SLOWLY LEARNING ALL ABOUT THIS STUFF I SEE MY RHUEMY 1X A MNTH ANYWAYS LATLEY I HAVE BEEN CRAMPING IN MY TOES AND FINGERS ANY IDEAS ABOUT THAT I AM AFRAID TO MAKE THE WRONG MOVE OR THEY CRAMP PLEASE HELP..TERESAsorry I dont have an answer for you but I do have cramping in my toes, feet and calves and I have looked at websites for other ds. and they always lead back to RA...but I never can really find out about the cramping. I was having it before I started on any RA meds. Maybe it is because when our joints hurt we carry ourselves differently and use muscle groups differently than normal to compensate.
