I tested with a RF Factor of 30 in February and 33 in May. All my other blood work is normal and my primary symptom is mild joint pain. I'll be curious to see how your Rheumie decides to treat you. I'm also curious what your other symptoms are?

This means that your ra antibodies are elevated.  Usually with this result they will want to test you again in a few weeks.  There are several conditions that can cause an elevated RA factor.  The blood work alone will not determine what condition you have, but it does point the doctors in a direction to explore.  What symptoms are you experiencing?
