A member asked:

My ana was positive andit shows my rnp positve at 146 with the range being (0-100) as normal..does this indicate mctd?

6 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

May or may not: This can be seen in mctd but you need an evaluation to clarify your true diagnosis. It can be seen in other settings.

Need to examine: It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without additional history, physical examination and may be some more tests.
