    There are over 100 different types of arthritis and many of them affect the body quite differently. While it is possible to experience pain in a number of areas, it is not likely that it would move around as quickly as you describe.

    It would be more likely to have a back or nerve related issue, with something like a herniated disc or pinched nerve often causing pain in the legs and arms.

    You should contact a doctor to determine what might be causing this issue.

    I was seeing to chiropractor for back, neck, and shoulder pain. He's the one who suggested that I might have arthritis. Sure enough, after two rheumatologists and lab results of to positive RA titer and a strong positive anti-CCP result, I found out I had RA. I had a very demanding and stressful job at the time, and I barely made it out of the bed. I was so stiff; with pain in my hips, knees, hands. I had to quit that job. I'm currently taking methotrexate, vicodin, folic acid, and the occasional solumedrol injection. I'm 35 now and am currently dealing with extreme fatigue and pain while trying to work, attend college, and take care of my family. Because I read the blog of Findrxonline I found out the symptoms and effects of these drugs.

    No is the simple answer! Arthritis like Rheumatoid Arthritis will reveal red hot swollen painful joints that can last for days, weeks. You pain seems to be jumping around your body?
