I developed Arthritis suddenly after hip replacement two years ago and can hardly walk after sitting for evdn a short time. I am very stiff, have joint pain and can not get up curb without holding on to something. I was not like this 2 years ago. I also have cysts in Paranasal area that they can’t get a handle on. I was positive for ANA test, but RA factor was 14 as it was a couple years ago. Can the meloxicam make RA factor lower?
