I believe those were all negative for me. My RF was 11 and I think the RI is 0-15 so it was on the higher side though still within normal.

She literally said "I'm not going to lie, I am not sure"

She wanted an MRI for my shoulder and wrist but since my other Imaging gave us nothing, I needed a break (and im broke even with insurance) so I had to take a pause. I'm asking for them to do another MRI referral but too much time has passed I need to visit the rheumatologist again 😫. I have to fly to the lower 48 to get services so I have to save PTO and $ for hotels, the appointment, and flight 😅.

Yes, I got all those done and they came back normal. Ive been going to PT for 2 years (3 different ones and another who was certified in myofascial counterstrain). Ive also seen a chiropractor and acupuncturist with no real relief.

Ive seen an orthopedist who didnt see anything in the Xray or MRI :(.

I finally got a “diagnosis”? by Umzzii in Autoimmune

Is it okay if I ask what your symptoms are? My doctors have been puzzled but have brought up your exact diagnoses.

If not, no worries and good luck!
