Hi all, I've posted a few times in the auto immune section, not much response though,
Do any of your children have a positive rheumatoid factor in there blood test?
They are thinking arthritis, but all I reD and no where have I found a child that is rf positive x

OP posts:
Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Hi, just came across this message. My daughter is 4 and has had juvenile arthritis since 15 months old. She has a negative rheumatoid factor. You can definitely get juvenile arthritis with a positive factor as there are various different types, I believe the types with the positive factor are more similar to the adult rheumatoid arthritis. Have you seen a consultant?
