What Are Symptoms Of Lupus With Blood Test Being Negative Suggestive Of?
I have at least 8 symptoms of lupus but everytime they do a blood test on me, my RA and ANA do not support it. I have had some Rheumatologist tell me I have lupus and treat me so and others tell me no, I do not have it...but still keep me on the medication. I am so confused. Can a person have lupus without having the blood test be positive?

Hello,
It is unlikely to be lupus. If the symptoms persist despite the treatment, We have to look for other causes.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
