A member asked:
My ana hep-2 titer is >1280 titer 1 and standard is <80 titer 1. pattern is centromere. i have lupus. just how bad is this result? common?

Lab tests: Both of these tests may be suggestive of lupus or other autoimmune conditions. However, the lab test are just 1 component of the overall assessment and does not by itself makes the diagnosis of lupus. I recommend seeing a rheumatologist and would be happy to consult if needed.
