Guest guest Posted November 2, 2005 Report Share Posted November 2, 2005 Unfortunately, blood work is only an indication of what might be wrong with us and there is nothing that can either prove or disprove RA or related diseases. Most of the diagnosis is based on patient history and doctor's examination. Also blood work can change just as physical symptoms can change with time.
