A member asked:

Positive ana 1:320 speckled and rnp 1.0. what does this mean? i feel fine no joint pains. only pains i have is some back pain and mild lower side pain

Maybe nothing: Then it may mean absolutely nothing. It is certainly not related to the back pain. It may be worthwhile to get a rheumatology opinion.

Maybe a false posit: It maybe a false positive as your current symptoms are not consistent with symptoms associated with those positive antibodies. See a rheumatologist to confirm.
