Positive ana negative ena moderately below normal c3c and on the way down but still normal c4c no symptoms of auto immune issues so am i dying of lupu?

Amost certain:NOT!: Don't worry about one test. If you have no signs and symptoms of lupus, you and the treating physician would know. Consumption of complement always involves vasculitis or autoimmune hemolysis. Apparently not in play. I definitely would not worry. See a rheumatology doc if you still have doubts!
