Hi Debbiedoo, I think the symptoms you describe are quite common. Doesn't make it any easier to live with I know. Its to do with the spondylitic changes impinging or touching the nerves in your neck which supply the arms. You may get some relief with physiotherapy, worth a try. Ask your rheumy, there may be a specialist physio, failing that try the GP.
