A member asked:
I have a positive ana test but it reads as 6? i'm used to seeing them as 1:40, 1:80 etc... what does 6 mean?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possibly nothing: This is certainly non-standard reporting. It suggests that on cannot have confidence in the reporting laboratory and the test should be repeated elsewhere.
