It is barely positiv: So results must be interpreted very carefully with all clinical symptoms taken into account. A test by itself is just a test. You might need a good rheumatologist

In my labs it shows a positive ANA and then the lab automatically checks for antibodies...The only one was a low positive rnp..What does that mean?
