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.

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

Dr. Vasanthasree Suggests...

Take a Anti CCP Test (Cyclic Citrullinated Peptide) Test or Take a CRP Test (C - Reactive Protein) Test

My son tested positive for COVID 19, but my report came back negative. I also had a fever, which has now subsided, though I am still experiencing some weakness. Should I be taking any medicine in this situation?
