A member asked:
Blood results showed rheumatoid arthritis ...do i need any medication for this?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
What blood tests?: The rheumatoid factor test is not specific and is present in numerous other conditions and even in normals. The ccp antibody is a much more specific test for ra. If you have no symptoms of ra, no treatment is needed.
