A member asked:

Rnp of 2.5 with autoimmune symptoms (fatigue, joint/muscle pain etc). doctor says may need to test for lupus again in furture. thoughts?

Not enough informati: This is not enough information to guide you. We would need a lot more information, The RNP of 2.5 is not enough to guide diagnostic or therapeutic decisions. Your physician can discuss about you seeing a rheumatologist.
