hi all, i posted on here a few days ago regarding my suspected lupus symptoms, i have had the first load of blood tests back as follows?
MPO negative
P-ANCA was obscured by a positive ANA
Vasculitis screen showed a raised CRP and ESR
Does this mean anything to anyone, i understand that a positive ANA means there is a good chance i have lupus???
I would appreciate any opinions or advice. I also went to see the rumatologist today (first visit) who said he would run a complete range of blood tests to see whats going on but didnt offer an opinion. Also to add, i have quite bad arthritis anyway and due to a rare growth condition i have osteoporosis in my hip (they are doing a bone scan to see if it is elsewhere)
many thanks annie xxxxxxxxxxx
