Re: Re: Strange Pain in Hand

[Guest guest]

When I first wrote my question, it was just in my right hand. And it's not

when bending it or flexing it. My hand is still and a pain shoots through

it. Then it happened in my left hand and last night in my chest. It's a type

of pain I've never experienced before. Mine doesn't get cold -- but the

pain shoots through. When in my chest, it felt mostly like on the skin. When

it was my right hand, it shot out the end of my thumb. When in the left

hand, it was more around the knuckles.

Very strange. I have an infusion the first week of May, although I don't

see my RA doc that day. Maybe I'll get some info them, but I'm not holding my

breath.

I am with you dd! About 4 nights ago my right hand turned DEAD cold! There

was shooting pain (like fireworks) going through my fingers! I didn't know

what to do, except scream inside myself! It was brutal!
