Yes; osteoarthritis will not show up on a blood test. Rheumatoid arthritisshould show up, however if the patient is immunosuppressed or on medication to control the arthritis, the test is less likely to come back as positive. Generally Arthritis should be diagnosed by symptoms, rather than relying on a blood test.
