Can neck pain and headaches be related to rheumatoid arthritis?
I have had terrible neck pain on each side and very bad headaches, could this be related to my rheumatoid? When I saw my rheumatologist about 2 months ago, it had just started and I really didn’t mention it as I thought it was just another symptom that would go away. Many symptoms I have come and go. I have rheumatoid, osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, and fibromyalgia. I’m taking Humira now, and Methotrexate injections every week.

Yes neck pain and headaches can be related to your Rheumatoid arthritis. It is important not just to take meds for RA but you also need to implement lifestyle changes. Avoiding autoinflammatory food such as gluten, dairy, soy, nightshades, ect.
