New area of RA pain? Question...

[Guest guest]

Hi All-

I have been dx'd with RA for 3 years. I have been thru Embrel, Remicade,

Orencia etc. Currently I am taking Prednisone, Rituxan, pain meds, Nexium,

Cymbalta, Ambien etc.

When all of this first started, I was having pain in my wrists, hands, feet,

toes, ankles and knees. But recently, I have been having major hip pain to

the point that it is waking me up in the middle of the night. The Rituxan is

doing an ok job of containing my RA but I also take it every 3-4 months

instead of the longer 6 month does. It just wears off too quickly on me.

It is normal to start with another area of pain after so many years?

Thanks for any answers- I appreciate it.

Jill
