A member asked:
Is it possible to have positive ana and rnp of 6.8 and not have autoimmune disease?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes they can: Yes it is - ANA can be false positive and so can RNP. However, the level of RNP is high so the question is - why did you have these tests done? Are there symptoms such as skin rash, joint pains, etc.

PCP performed general lab work. The results showed high ANA (1:1280) RNP (8) CRP (18) and sed rate (90), low Vit D and B12. I have no symptoms other than mild Raynauds. Is this indicative of Autoimmune disease now or in future?
I had ANA labs done that show a 1:80 speckled ANA, Anti SM-RNP of 3.1, RNP of 1.1. Other labs are normal. I have no family history of autoimmune disease and currently no symptoms of MCTD. Does this indicate I have MCTD or it can develop?
Feel great - incidental finding ANA 1:160 after acute sinusitis. Then had Anti-DNA, Ant-Smith, SSA/SSB, RNP, SCL-70, Centromere, and Thyroid labs all normal. Does this exclude autoimmune disorder?
Blood tests showed high antibodies to: ana, ssdna, sm, rnp/sm, ssa(ro), ssb(la), scl-70, centromere. Is this likely lupus or a different automimmune?
