What Are the Symptoms of Rheumatoid Arthritis?

In addition to the hallmark symptoms of swollen, painful, and stiff joints and muscles, rheumatoid arthritis patients may also experience symptoms such as fatigue, low-grade fever, lack of energy, and loss of appetite. The muscle and joint stiffness is usually worst in the morning or after extended periods of inactivity.
Other symptoms include bumps under the skin (rheumatoid nodules), shortness of breath due to inflammation or damage to the lungs, hoarseness, and eye problems.
