Not looking for a diagnosis but does this look positive?

Hi all,

I am waiting to hear back from my Dr and want to stress I will be talking to a DR and not looking for a diagnosis but in the meantime I just really really want to hear from you all if this looks positive for lupus?

I've known about the thyroid antibodies and the positive ana in the past. This is about 12 years of unknown illness so to have come this far is crazy to me and you all know the waiting for Dr game.

I hope this is allowed....thank you all

  1. Unfortunately, I am not a medical professional and am unable to read these results, but I can share an article written by a rheumatologist about the different laboratory markers for lupus. I'm not sure if it will help you understand your specific situation but it may provide some context before you next meet with your doctor!
