Rheumatoid Arthritis - Diagnosis | Johns Hopkins

Sitting down and listening to a patient’s story is the first step in diagnosis of Rheumatoid Arthritis. While swollen joints are a large indicator of Rheumatoid Arthritis, there are many other symptoms, such as fatigue, anxiety and depression, and stiffness. Doctors are diagnosing Rheumatoid Arthritis much earlier now, to prevent joint damage and begin treatment as soon as possible. In this video, Dr. Uzma Haque, a physician at the Johns Hopkins Arthritis Center, explains the diagnosis process of Rheumatoid Arthritis.

I was diagnosed with RA at Mayo Clinic my anti-CCP test was so high it was off the chart. My CRP test was at 22. MRI showed erosions of joints in my wrists hands and elbows. 7 years later now and I have never been in remission after dmards and biologics. I was told if your positive for anti-CCP that the RA May be more aggressive and resistant to drug treatments. Is that true?
