Concerned?

Hi, new here. My rheumatologist did the Avise test for lupus. That came back negative but I got a positive RA IgA not IgM. Should I be concerned? My rheumatologist didn't tell me this, I picked up test results.

  1. Hi, momster. Welcome to our community! I hope this site can serve as a resource and a form of support for you as you learn more about RA. While we cannot give out medical advice (for your safety!), we encourage you to reach out to your rheumatologist to discuss your test results. Please keep us updated on how you're doing if you'd like to share! Warmly, Alesandra (RheumatoidArthritis.net Team)
