Question 1

For the past 10 days, I have been experiencing severe pain in both my knee joints and feet. The pain worsens when I rest, but slightly improves while walking. Today, I did some tests, CRP is 4, Blood Sugar is 151 (1 hour after lunch), ESR is 10, TSH is 4.5 (slightly elevated), RA Factor is 7.2, and I am still waiting for the Anti CCP test results. Please advise how I can reduce this pain.

Question 2

I have been suffering from joint pain throughout my body. My recent test reports show that my calcium, vitamin D, sugar, and thyroid levels are normal. However, my RA factor was greater than 120 in march and remains high as of july. My uric acid level is 6.50, and my RBC count is 4.99. Despite taking Ayurvedic treatments and regularly using Turmod, Rosiflex, and Artilon, my RA factor has not improved. I am concerned about the reason for this and would like to know what should be done next.

Question 3

Respected Doctors, my mom is already taking medicines for sugar and blood pressure. For the last few months she has been having shoulder and joint pain. My dad and mom went to an orthopedic doctor and got medicines for the problem. I will attach the prescription and all other details including her blood test report. Please verify the prescription and reply whether she can take this many medicines for joint pain? In the first course she had four different medicines daily. From today she is taking five medicines for the next fifteen days. Thanks in advance. Awaiting your reply. Patient Name: R. Vanaja. Note: This is not to cross check the medicines given by the doctor or his ability. I just want to know whether my mom is taking excessive medications?

I have suffered from rheumatoid arthritis for the last 2 years. Today my blood test report shows ESR 40 and eosinophils 07. Is it ok?

ESR 40 suggests active inflammation, which is expected in RA. Eosinophils at 7 percent are mildly high, which could be an allergy. Continue your RA medications and consult your rheumatologist. Do the required CRP and repeat CBC as needed.
