Elevated cytokines blood test?

[Guest guest]

I read on Ivanhoe medical news of a new blood test to detect RA before it

becomes dmamaging. Has anyone used this test? My daughter has many pain

symptoms, esp her knees, but no positive tests. Today hre ribs and shoulders

also were hurting. She is 21, without enough stamina to do any work or school

full time.
