A member asked:

How about ana screen positive, ana titer (ifa) 1:80 hi, and pattern speckled?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

How about it?: Up to a quarter of women your age have an ANA (immunofluorescent antibody) at a low titer like yours with a speckled pattern. If there's a question of whether you have lupus or one of its relatives, it's a piece of information to note and file for future reference. A negative ANA would rule several things out. Your result proves nothing positive. Best wishes.
