Dear Sir, I am S Anand. My lab report shows a Rheumatoid Factor of 15.37 IU per ml, HS CRP of 9.95, with a standard value of 3, and Lipoprotein level of 66.32, with a standard value of 30.0. I would like to know if these results indicate Rheumatoid Arthritis. Please suggest the appropriate course of medication. Thank you, Sir.

Question

Accepted Answer

Mildly raised RF and CRP suggest some inflammation. This may point to early arthritis, but does not confirm RA alone. See a rheumatologist for a full assessment
