Rheumatoid factor 24 hi ; what diseases to be concerned about?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Rheumatod Arthritis: As i tell my pas, medical students, or any other person who orders a test, you need to know what you will do with the result of that test. For example if you had tha test done for joint pain it could suggest RA but is not diagnostic of it. If the test was done on a routine physical it may have little value. If the test was done for rheumatic complaints it could mean multiple issues. Talk with doc.
