Do you think you may have RA?

Just remember, not everyone who has a positive RF factor has RA, and not everyone who has RA has a positive Rheumatoid factor (blood test).

A BETTER indicator of whether or not you have the auto-immune disease rheumatoid arthritis is a blood test called the Anti-CCP.

If your doctor hasn't checked this then go back and have it checked!


Also, if read the story of "my first symptoms"... it may give you a better idea of the symptoms you can experience with RA.

Good luck :)
