What Causes Pain In The Achilles Tendon Area While Having Rheumatoid Arthritis?

I have Rheumatoid Arthritis and I m experiencing very tender Achilles tendons. My Rheumatologist doesn t think it s related. I take several supplements including calcium. I recently have become lactose intolerant. Any ideas on what may be causing the Achilles pain? It loosens up when I walk and stiffens when I m still.
