Typically, your immune system generates antibodies to fight harmful germs, but rheumatoid factors are antibodies that can mistakenly attack healthy cells and tissues, leading to autoimmune disorders.

While not everyone has rheumatoid factors, some individuals who do have them are still healthy. However, the presence of certain symptoms alongside elevated rheumatoid factor levels could indicate an autoimmune disorder.

RA Factor testing can also help assess the severity of rheumatoid arthritis and its potential impact on organs.

To know why you need an RA Factor test, the onset of symptoms often begins in the wrists, hands, and feet, affecting the same joints on both sides of the body and exhibiting a similar pattern. If you experience symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis, such as

• Joint pain
• Swelling
• Stiffness lasting more than 30 minutes
• or systemic issues like
• Fatigue, fever
• Loss of appetite

An RF test may be necessary. Rheumatoid arthritis typically affects joints in a symmetric pattern, often beginning in the wrists, hands, and feet. Additionally, it can manifest as dry eyes, skin lumps, or anaemia and may be associated with other autoimmune disorders like Sjögren syndrome, lupus, or scleroderma.

You generally don't have to take any specific steps in preparation for an RA test. However, it's important to inform your healthcare provider about any medications or supplements you are using, as certain substances may impact the results. PharmEasy Labs in Aurangabad will provide any necessary instructions in advance, if applicable.
