Yes, internal burning sensations and morning symptoms are common with RA. Many myRAteam members report experiencing burning sensations and internal discomfort, particularly in the morning hours. Morning stiffness and discomfort affects nearly 75% of people with RA, and these symptoms tend to be worse after periods of inactivity like sleep. Some members describe feeling hot internally even when they don't feel warm to the touch. Others experience night sweats along with their symptoms. One myRAteam member shared that their pain often coincides with night sweats, while others report feeling internal heat and sweating throughout the day. Since you mention having both RA and Sjögren's, it's worth noting that both conditions can affect multiple body systems and cause various sensations. These symptoms can include joint pain, inflammation, muscle pain, and other physical discomforts that might contribute to the sensations you're experiencing.
