Hi
,
Glad you've found our community! While we can't provide medical advice (for your safety) over the internet, I can do my best to share some helpful resources as you navigate complex lab work! If you haven't already, I would suggest contacting your primary care doctor or Rheumatologist to go over the results so they can help explain it more comprehensively. In the meantime, I'll include a link to an article on our site that details the different types of blood tests for Lupus: https://lupus.net/blood-tests. I also want to include a link to an article I found to help "decode" blood test terminology: https://www.womenshealthmag.com/health/a19929267/blood-test-results/. I hope this information can help you get the clarity you need and deserve!
