Orthopaedic Surgeon 's  Response
hello,
thank you for using healthcare magic.
I read your question and understood your concern.
From the blood test results it looks like you are having rheumatoid arthritis.
Even though this is not a completely curable disease, now with the new medication is a disease that can can be kept under control most of the time.
I suggest you to see a Rheumatologist specialist and he'll give you a proper medication.
