Guest guest Posted July 11, 2003 Report Share Posted July 11, 2003 Hi all. I have another question... As I mentioned before, I don't have a definitive diagnosis of RA , but my rheumatologist suspects it. I take Plaquenil and Mobic, and due to a flare that is just beginning, I am starting on a round of Prednisone. My question is this.... Does sun or heat cause anyone to flare? I seem to flare horribly after being in the sun, which I thought was more of a lupus thing. I am running low grade fevers, having horrible hip and shoulder pain, and also pain in fingers and wrists, and I spent a day at my sister in law's pool the other day. It always seems to happen after a day at a pool. Just wondered if anyone had heard of this being related to RA. Thanks! Pam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
