Yes, your doctor is correct. Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and rheumatoid arthritis are almost ruled out but other connective tissue disorders should be considered. You need more serology tests besides the ones you mentioned if they have not been done. Good luck!

It is impossible to interpret lab tests without knowing the clinical situation under which they were drawn in more detail. Having said that, your symptoms and your lab tests suggest you could have hey connective tissue disease, as your doctor suggests. You should follow up with them to See what the next step is in your work up and treatment. Good luck.
