I have ds dna of 1:20, but negative ana. what would this indicate?

How do you FEEL?: Both the dsDNA tube test and the fluorescent ANA are fraught with pitfalls. This is information useful toward ruling lupus in or out, but the decision to treat will be made clinically, and that's what matters. I'm sorry it's confusing and I wish you the best.
