i can't find any relation between RA and blood count.

on the good side, some joints are better stiff and swollen.

this is the best i can come up with.

i don't think the 521 number is correct or relevant without the specific test that resulted in that.

Rick and Gorob... just got back from the Docs.. there going he is going to run this spicific test again.. Different Doctor Different lab.. hopefully different results... the numbers were 521 which he said were off the chart.. so they could have had a major error at the other doctors lab place??? but it does across the board screening.. this time checking the RA along with Hep. A, B, and C... just to make sure nothing was missed on the last Liver panel test or otherwise...

normal for an RA testing in men is 0-14... 521 would have/should have me crippled.. LOL.. I told him I feel that way sometimes LMAO!!!!

btw Rick.. don't know much about RA keeping a certian joint stiff.. but I do know it takes the perfect woman to do this... could there be a relation to RA and a Woman??? LMAO!!!!!
