I am recently diagnosed with RA (but now know I've had the symptoms for 2-3 years at least) and also have had the pin pricks which hit, then fade away. Simultaneously I feel like my blood "runs hot" and that too fades away with the pin prick sensation. This is mainly in my hands. Have not had the joy of it in my feet. Have wondered if those are RA symptoms or if lupus (or something else) is lurking. Hmmmm....as I write this I am feeling the prickles in my left arm, on either side of the elbow....and it now has faded too. RA is just full of surprises, isn't it?
