First comes the itching, then the pain. I finally put that all together after a few months. I don't think there is anything in our body that is not affected by RA. I believe it follows our nerve endings and tries to fight where ever it can until that cell finally dies. Until then we feel the pain or it shuts us down. All that battling going on inside of us zaps us of everything we have. Of course by now I think I can rationalize almost anything away !!
