I am really confused and concerned about my results. Every result has been in normal range, a couple of them show a trend where the numbers increased but the results are still in normal range. I wake up hurting on most days. My Rheumatologist has been proactive by prescribing Plaquenil, but I would love to be able to identify the reason behind all of this. This is exhausting.

@klcharris12 I didn't test positive for RA actor and wasn’t retested for 7 years when I moved and changed docs who got all new baseline data. I have never been much of a sweller. I rarely have blood results that are remarkable. Occasionally my Sed Rate goes up. But both Docs were/are awesome and experienced enough to trust their gut about the cause of my joint pain and stiffness and occasional pseudo gout. I am on Remicade infusions every 6 weeks and well controlled mostly. I have had four trigger fingers surgically released and currently am dealing with calcium crystals in my knee joint - aka pseudo gout.

A long way to saying yes 🙂
