HI Doc, I have been diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis in my reports although no symptoms present. This was diagnosed as a result of too much walking for 2 days on vacations. Pain started from my right big toe and now also have pain in left toe big toe and 2 adjacent toes of left foot. During the last year I have been taking 1500 mg of cetapin and vit d, folic acid tablets daily. The level of anti ccp has increased from 45 i/u to 119 I /u with diet modifications and gym. I am not convinced that 2 days of walking will result in rheumatoid arthritis. Till date I have had 1 sprain in my back and 1 in ankle an no other pain elsewhere. I am on dronis (for periods), cetapin 1500 mg daily, 1 oosure vit d tablet daily, 1 remyln tablet daily, 125 mcg tab for thyroid daily. Please advice who should I consult to understand the real situation.

Blood test for rheumatoid arthritis can be positive in 10% normal population. Only blood test doesn't indicate rheumatoid.
