A member asked:

Would results from a lumbar puncture give any indication of lupus? my results came back negative and i wonder if lupus is still a possibility

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: If testing, especially the ANA, is negative lupus is very unlikely. Spinal fluid analysis will not help. You give no specifics about your symptoms so it is impossible to comment beyond generalities.
