A member asked:
Does presence of dsdna antibody (elisa 120 u) indicate lupus? the lab reference range was normal upto 200u and ana titre is low with total ana 55. thx
A doctor has provided 1 answer
More information: Diagnosis of lupus depends on a number of criteria and a positive ANA, even antibody to ds DNA does not mean lupus. Please consult this site and discuss the matter with your doctor. http://www.lupus.org/answers/entry/lupus-diagnostic-criteria

Does it mean I have lupus if my ANA came back at 1:320 when anti-dsdna antibodies and sedimentation are normal?
Negative ANA, negative Anti-DSDNA, negative Sjgren antibodies, normal ESR, normal C-RP, normal CBC. Does this rule out lupus or Sjgren syndrome?
Negative ANA blood test but positive anti-dsDNA antibodies. Do I have lupus? What causes this? Very symptomatic.
ANA result came back as 1:640 homogenous pattern. Anti-dsDNA Antibodies came back negative. I have a lot of lupus symptoms. If the Anti-dsDNA Antibodies came back negative, does this mean it's likely not Lupus? Also had TPO antibodies present at 70?
How do you know if your ANA was done by Elisa or IFA? Why is my ANA positive but with no titer? Labs are positive ANA, positive dsDNA 14 and scl70 >8.
