Blood test results

A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭
Richmond, VA

ANA Sc A came back 64 units and says normal is under 11. another one called ANA 10 panel-ANTI-ssDNA 1006 Units and that test should be under 100 units...do you have any idea what they are?. another test C-reactive protein came back high at 21 mg/L and should be between 0-10? I am new to all of this. I don't want to look these up on Dr. Google, was just wondering if anyone else has had similar results...I don't understand any of these test results

Members responded to a post about confusing blood test results showing elevated ANA and C-reactive protein levels, with most offering reassurance that a doctor would need to interpret the specific results and urging the poster to call for clarification rather than waiting until December. Several members shared their own experiences with ANA testing, noting that elevated levels can indicate autoimmune conditions like lupus, Sjögren's, or rheumatoid arthritis, though one member mentioned their positive ANA was simply due to birth control pills. A recurring theme was the importance of getting clear answers from a medical provider, as these tests require personalized interpretation and follow-up care.

c reactive protein is your level of inflammation. the others are for antineucular antibodies. your dr will have to be specific for you but i do believe one is for lupus and or sjogrens, rheumatoid arthritis. these are just some, not saying they pertain to you. if you want to know more you will have to google the results. have you spoken to your md yet?? I know this because thats what my results looked like. I have been confirmed with sjogrens , arthritis hypothyroid and a high c reactive protein.

I hope your doctor plans on explaining the levels to you. I had the ANA test done last year and my pain doc explained it to me and I was negative for RA and Lupus according to my levels. Maybe these levels prove you have an autoimmune inflammatory disorder. I don't know for sure, but I hope your doc can provide the info you need. Definitely try and call them about it or make an appointment to discuss. Gentle Hugs.

My ANA came back positive. The doctor told me it was because I was on birth control pills.
