Guest guest Posted February 25, 2011 Report Share Posted February 25, 2011 I have never gotten a straight answer from a Rheumatologist about it, but my GP said it is a symptom of RA. I've had it frequently since I was diagnosed. I've been told RA can affect your glands. It must be true but I don't really believe in glands, I've never seen one. Stan Seattle, Cold, very cold! [ ] on orencia i have a very funny feeling in my throat area it feels like someone is squeezeing my neck. like i have on a very tight turtle neck.would orencia cause this feeling. talked to my ra doctor doesn't give a straight answer. any suggestions. thanks ann Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
