A member asked:
Can a positive ana (going up for years, now 1/640) be insignificant if other autoimmune markers are negative?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably not: If you don't have symptoms but why are they checking it?? Ask the person who ordered it to be sure. They know you and your history .
