Yes, I feel like my insides are burning sometimes, particularly the intestines and pelvic area. The better control of my RA the less of that sensation I have. Also my skin and scalp feel like they are on fire, or they tingle . I have that for years, way before starting Rinvoq.

Ya...I've been 4 months and not much of a difference either. I was hesitant to try it bc of all the side effects that can come with it but you get to the point you will try anything in hopes that it works...i know it is a very expensive drug almost $1,700. Month which I do not have to pay for thank goodness..just wondering if you have ever felt like yr insides are burning sometimes
