Has anyone heard of the Vectra test? It is a blood test that looks for biomarkers in RA.

It is 12 different biomarkers. I had all 12. My last rheumatologist never did this. This test was given
by my new rheumatologist.

Sam H, I disagree with you. The test is sent to California. It can help your doctor know the level of your pain and my insurance paid for the entire bill. Not sure where you are getting your information from.
