My understanding is that neuropathy can occur from the RA itself.

Hi. Itoo have had strange numbness in my hands and am also taking Plaquenil

- it feels like when your foot goes to sleep. I have not discussed it with

my doctor because I feel I have enough problems without throwing something

else in there-LOL!

Hi everyone,

Has anyone experience loss of sensation in their hands and feet?

And was it found to be due to the Plaquenil? This has been going on

for about 8 months now. I believe it may have started after I began

taking plaquenil---not really sure, but it's about right. My Rheumy

and reg. dr. are looking into if that is a possibility. Just wanted

to get some insight from all of you.

Thanks,

Hi everyone,

Has anyone experience loss of sensation in their hands and feet?

And was it found to be due to the Plaquenil? This has been going on

for about 8 months now. I believe it may have started after I began

taking plaquenil---not really sure, but it's about right. My Rheumy

and reg. dr. are looking into if that is a possibility. Just wanted

to get some insight from all of you.

Thanks,

Hi, I'm Beth. I have had RA (diangosed) since late August. I was placed

on Plaquenil and Prednisone. I experienced numbing hands and feet along with

cramping hands and feet prior to going on the plaguenil. I assummed that the

numbness was due to the RA itself. I still experience these sensations while on

the plaquenil; but the treatment has improved the sensatins. I mostly have

difficutly while asleep with my arms and hands going to sleep almost every

night.

I don't think its the Plaquenil.

I was having those sensations for several months before I was diagnosed with

RA. I wasn't taking Plaquenil. I took it for only a week and stopped it due

to an allergy to it. I'm learning that those symptoms are likely due to the

RA itself.

Numbness in your hands can also be a sign of carpal tunnel or cervical spine

problems-worth checking out in case it is the latter. Cary
