What Causes Shoulder To Arm Pain Every Time Drinking Alcohol When Having RA?
Hi I am 28 years old and for the past little over a year every time I take a drink of alcohol I get a severe pain starting in my left shoulder and moving down my left arm. It only lasts for a 10-15 minute period and then is gone. I at this point have stopped drinking. I am healthy other than having RA. What could this be?

In my opinion you had an allergic reaction to alcohol (yes you can develop it even if you never had it )
could be caused by drug interaction between your RA medications and alcohol
Good Luck
