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.

Dr. Kamran Suggests...

Take a CRP Test (C - Reactive Protein) Test or Take a CBC Test (Complete Blood Count) Test

Book CRP Test (C - Reactive Protein) Test Book CBC Test (Complete Blood Count) Test

I got a full body checkup and need an opinion on the rheumatoid factor normal range value. My report mentioned: Rheumatoid Factor Quantitative less than 20.0 IU/mL, less than 30 Normal, 30 to 50 Weakly positive, greater than 50 Reactive. Is this normal? Some sites say that up to 14 IU/mL is normal and more than 14 is high. Please advise.

I have attached my RF Turbidimetry test report. I am 22 years old and weigh 103 kg. Is this normal? If not, what should I do? Is this reversible?

My RA factor test report is positive. I have been experiencing joint pain in my fingers for the last two days. Six months ago, I visited a specialist at NH Hospital, who said there were no symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis.
