JOINT PAIN/SLE/GENERAL PROFILE in Srinagar

Twelve tests, one sample, one report. Booked together rather than picked off one at a time, which is both cheaper and a lot less faff.

It covers red and white cell counts, liver function, kidney function, urine analysis, inflammation markers, autoimmune markers.

Joint Pain Has Very Different Causes

Wear-related osteoarthritis, autoimmune rheumatoid arthritis and gout can all present as one painful joint, and they're managed in completely different ways. Getting that wrong costs months.

Inflammatory arthritis in particular responds far better when treatment starts early, before lasting joint damage sets in. That's why the blood markers matter alongside whatever imaging you have, rather than waiting to see how the pain develops.

Before You Book

Sample: Blood and Urine. Preparation: No fasting needed. Eat and drink as normal.

Tell the collection team everything you're taking, prescription or not. Plenty of supplements move these numbers, and without that context your report reads wrong.

Reading Your Report

Expect a value or two to sit slightly outside the range. That's normal and usually means nothing on its own. What matters is which one, by how much, and whether it's moving compared with last time.

These tests point at a diagnosis. They don't make one. Read your report with a doctor who knows your history and what you're currently taking.
