A member asked:
Esr: 27 , crp : 9.2 , ana : 1/80 i don't think these are high enough to say this is lupus, but am i crazy to think this might not just be fibro?

yes: It may be many things or nothing significant. These are non-specific tests, as opposed to rafactor;lecells, and others which define autoimmune diseases. But some autoimmune disorders remain vague, do not progress, are rarely disabling but cause discomfort. Often called dyscollagenosis. Recent studies on fibrimyalgia found flaws in the immune system and so this disorder may wind upinthe autoimmune.
