What Causes Mild Headache And Numbness Of Face On Left Side?

I have had R.A. for over a two yrs, it has been under control for the last year. Lately I am experiencing a dull headache on the left side and a numbness in the left side of face. Also on the left arm, hands, and foot, a dull ache and feeling of muscle weakness/numbness. Is this part of my R.A. or a pinched nerve?
