Cindy,
Like you, my hands hurt a lot. Plus those tiny joints on the tops of my feet and then my knees also. THose are the worse for me. I get the neck problems that make it impossible to sleep and also ankle problems. I'm wondering if when the spring time comes if we will feel somewhat better? maybe not alot better but hope fully some relief. THis is my first year so i don't know.

In order of severity:Thoracic Spine , hands/wrists, ankles.

Bottom of my left foot,, makes life interesting! Trish

Ooo good question! The index large knuckle joint on left hand. Pinky toe right foot. They come and go & on a scale of 1-10 the pain is like a 2 or 3 at most.

My right shoulder does a fair amount of popping & cracking especially if I'm cleaning in a circular motion like washing my car or wiping down the coffee table.

For pain, the worst are my shoulders and hands...but my knees really hinder my walking because they are so swollen.

Neck and knees lately. Swollen stiff and hard to sleep. Can't get comfortable!

Neck and shoulders because those make it hard to sleep.

Most frequent? Hands/Wrists and Knees...

Most severe? Knees, Hips & Hands/Wrists

Thrown in the mix somewhere... Feet, Lower Back & Elbows. I don't think I've had shoulder pain in my flares, but this is all new to me, so I'm not sure what's just a "pulled muscle" or "I just slept on it wrong" that's causing pain in my neck/shoulder.

Bluedogs2 does not have any joints that don't hurt most of the time

Peace

Hands and feet, hands and feet lol!
Right now my knuckles at the base of my pointers, my large toe joint on the left foot if I walk too much, my heels are horrible and my right ankle over an old injury is horrible. My left wrist is almost nonfunctional now and gives me grief.

My jaw was tender, but it disappeared overnight. My other knuckles, other wrist and ankle hurt, but these are the current focus.

This is a good question. Most of the time and currently my shoulders, my back, my fingers, my neck, sometimes my toes and eyeballs hurt. Now that is really bad. I have been in a good deal of pain lately. as My Rheumatologist left my last appt. as a "let's see if the Rituxan is really working". Well with all this pain I am having and the Rituxan is due next month I would say yes it is working and I do need it. I am usually scheduled for the next dose which is six months apart before leaving the office, but the plan was to see the doctor prior to scheduling. I had an appt. Jan. 3. It snowed. that day appt. was cancelled and rescheduled. I thought I could wait until the end of the month but I am going to call tomorrow to see if I can move the appt up. Trying to be a happy camper, but very much in pain this weekend.

My feet, both of them pretty equally, my hands, both equally and I am having some major lower back issues, which is due to my scoliosis, but I am going to talk to the Rheumy about it on next Monday, as my leg went totally out in the shower this morning and I went down. Missed the grab bar it happened so fast! Not a pretty sight!

Most joints hurt. They just have varying degrees of intensity so that's where my mind focuses. Lately the worst are hips & shoulders. Big toes & thumbs are vying for runner up.

Sleep would be a wonderful thing. 90 min seems to be my magic number before waking . And that's with enough meds to take down an elephant.

As a newly diagnosed and yet uncontrolled RA person my joint pain is like a game of musical chairs and where the music stops nobody knows! I tend to have a low level (2 or so) of pain in almost all my joints (knees and elbows are usually good) with more intense pain rotating between most joints. My hands, feet, shoulders, and hips get it the worst. I have been in tears and maxed out on meds with my shoulders at times and had to walk with a cane because of hip and foot problems. I have one more increase in my MTX dose to do and then if things aren't improved by March I will start on a biologic.~Lori

Feet, always my feet it seems, that's where this all began. :(
And ankles, both have been consistently swollen for over a yr now, the left is a little worse than the right. And low low back, it seems to always be on "simmer" just waiting to go out. Then next in order would be wrist, then neck. And hair, did I mention my hair??!!! LOL
