Guest guest Posted June 26, 2010 Report Share Posted June 26, 2010 Hello Everyone, RA is something new on my medical plate and I am still not sure it's a reality. My last bloodwork (6/18) shows my C-Reactive Protein to be 85.6 with a range of 0.0-4.9 and my CCP Antibodies to be 24 with a range of 0-19. I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's Disease (thyroid) many years ago and have many questions regarding the association of RA/Lupus/Hypothyroid. How do I tell the difference... how can I be certain about an RA diagnoses? In your opinions, what is the best test to conclusively diagnose RA. All of my symptoms mimic all of the above (however, my thyroid numbers look really good right now) and I am just so confused. I have a great internists who works along with me and respects my input, but I wonder if I need to see a rhumatologists. Any information you can share will be greatly appreciated.
