Based on the search results provided, there isn't specific information about avascular necrosis in relation to RA or its medications. However, it's important to discuss any concerns about bone health or joint pain with your rheumatologist, as they can properly evaluate your symptoms and adjust your treatment plan if needed.

What we do know is that RA can affect blood flow to various parts of the body, particularly in joints and bones. If you're experiencing new or worsening pain in your joints, this should be evaluated by your healthcare provider. If you're concerned about medication side effects, never stop taking your prescribed medications without consulting your healthcare provider first. They may need to carefully taper your medications to avoid flares and can help determine if your symptoms are related to your current treatment plan or the progression of RA itself.
