A lot of us get this intense heat I now mainly get it at night but some months would have heat flashes (not menopause) during the day and I just dripped sweat. They say with RA you can have low grade fever I am unsure if this is what they mean but seems part of the process. When I first was getting them my GP checked my Vit D levels which was very low too so now on a cours eon Vit d 3 months on 3 months off by my GP.

Yep I get this so hot my hubby says you could fry an egg on me. It’s at its worst when my disease is active . I would say it’s the inflammation in our bodies.

I would also say its definitely active inflammation occuring in the body. In chinese medicine, your "triple warmer" and organ meridians can be blocked or over active. I would suggest seeing an energy medicine practitioner...mine tuned into my body and saw it was in complete overdrive (when starting MTX) and helped calm my fight or flight response... which is what autoimmune is.. over-reactivity.

Not what you're looking for?
