ANA hep2 is positive at 1:80. What does my report mean? What illness do I have? I have mild fever for many days and I am unable to go to work. I have been told to consult an orthopedician.

Low positive ANA may be seen in early autoimmune disorders like SLE, RA. Further autoimmune workup needed if joint pain, fatigue, or other symptoms present.

Dr. Vasanthasree Suggests...

Take a ANTI NUCLEAR ANTIBODY (ANA) Test or Take a CBC+ESR Test

Last week, 1.5 liters of fluid was removed from the space between my lungs. Since then, I have been experiencing rapid weight loss, loss of appetite, bitterness in the mouth, constant fatigue, and a persistent cough. All lab reports have come back normal, and TB has been ruled out, but the doctors have not been able to give a clear diagnosis yet. I am very concerned and would appreciate it if you could review the situation and let me know if there is anything more we should do

My sister is 33 years old. For the last few years, she has been experiencing joint pain and weight loss. We did a blood test and RA factor is negative. Please suggest what we can do for this?

I suffered from viral fever one month ago. After 2 to 3 days I got red rashes all over my body. Dengue and Chikungunya tests were negative. Now, since one month I am suffering from acute joint pain. My blood report for ANA is strongly positive. Please suggest?
