A member asked:
Can lupus show up on your blood tests?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Spectrum of things: Lupus is diagnosed through a spectrum of findings and not just a blood test. Blood tests help us, but are certainly not the end all be all. There are cases where people have lupus wih negative blood tests.
