I have this problem as well. I get soooo hot that I swear I could run around nude! But, I'll spare all of humanity and won't! Lol. My very bother me more than my hands and I have yet to figure out how to deal with it!

I sleep with compression gloves every single night because of pain. I use the copper infused ones from Tommy's (online company )

My Dr did put me on a steroid pack to help. Said we can do it twice if we need to. Then if it is the same. Up my meds

I too often suffer with my temperature change. Often I am hot and it drives me crazy especially here in GA in the summer. I would love to live somewhere it stays cold. But sometimes I go from hot to cold and back and forth so much that is crazy too... But its usually when I am having a flare. But that is actually how I found out that I had RA.. If you take your temperature you may find that your temp is elevated some too.. I usually run a lower than normal temp and I would get a flare and start getting hot and just take my temp out of curiosity....
HUgs to you all.
