My rhuematoid factor has been increasing since I was diagnosed, I don't have much pain, but there is a lot of swelling near the bite mark (wrist) I was tested Wednesday and found out today that it's 162 at Quest and the range should be less than 14, does anyone have any suggestions as how to deal with this? My llmd has taken me off antibiotics and basically has thrown me to the dogs but now my pcp is trying to get educated so that he can treat me for lyme. But, if anyone has any answers regarding my rheumatoid factor please send a private message.

go to the Roadback foundation and you will see that RA is treated with Mino and people get better. Many there have lyme but there is a wealth of info on their message board.
