Your symptom is quite nonspecific and I do not think there is any relationship with your blood test results. ANA titer 80 with speckled pattern does not have any diagnostic value and those abnormalities (high BUN, high BUN/Creat and high RDW) need to be interpreted individually, they are not typical manifestations of a certain problem.

All laboratory results need to be interpreted in the clinical context and the doctor who ordered the tests is usually in the best position to do that. Talk to the doctor who ordered the tests. Having said that, Elevated BUN is a cause for concern and you may wish to consult a nephrologist. Wish you good health!
