Still Mysterious

I am still on this "mystery train" as I call it. I saw a neurologist about my left sided numbness and had another MRI, turns out NO TUMOR great!

My rheumatologist ordered a bunch of labs to be done to officially diagnose my RA and check for Lupus and some of them were interesting.
