I Went to the dr. and was told my ANA was speckled, thats all I know, Can someone tell me what this means im suppost to go to the Rumotolgist, but it will not be until the 20th of July, Can someone give me and idea of what this means.
Anita,
Call your doctor's office back and ask to speak to his/her nurse. Ask the nurse to go over the test results with you - ask for a copy of the test results to be mailed to you so you can hand-deliver them to the Rheumy. Nurses can be your best ally. There is a website where you can email lab professionals about your specific results, but it's important to have the tests in front of you - and it's free...
I went back to famiy dr. today an the results of my test from 1 yr ago was a 80, and this time it was 180. and speckled....go to the rumy on 22nd of july so it will be soon but not soon enough, so if anyone can tell me what this means i would be greatful
