Had Sarcoid Like Tumor In Wrist, Have Morton's Neuroma In Foot, Had Partial Knee Replacement. Ultrasound Done. Linked To RA?
2yrs ago I had a sarcoid like tumor removed from my wrist. 2 weeks ago an ultra sound showed 2 Moretons Neuromas in my left foot. A 11mm mass and a 7mm mass. Last week another scan revealed I have had a ruptured Bakers Cyst. I had a partial knee replacement 6 yrs ago. My question is " Could these be linked to Rheumatoid Arthritis" and would it show up in a blood test?
Many Thanks Joycie

Hello
Thanks for visiting HCM
The problems of neuroma and cyst do not linked with Rheumatoid arthritis.
ALL are having different causes , different clinical symptoms and different treatment.The RA CAN be find out by doing RA FACTOR ,ASO TITRE and c-reactive protein.
