Rheumatoid Factor
My RF was 1000…..what does this mean? How high can it actually go? …. I was already diagnosed with sleep apnea and fibromailgia (sp?)this past week and now my rheumatoid factor comes back this high… I am seeing a neurologist, rheumologist, and integrative medicine doctor. I am supposed to see an ear, nose, and throat doctor in three weeks to see about getting tonsils, adnoids, etc. removed to improve my sleep apnea,,,, but I want to know what to expect from that high of a factor. Thank you, Sarah

TNF inhibitors and shingles
I have had RA for 16 years and am currently on Enbrel and imuron. This week I have been diagnosed with shingles and a urinary tract infection. Could this be a result of my weakened immune system and should I stop the Enbrel?
