Hi..
I very much understand your concern. A simple elevated ASO titre doesn't confirm or rule out a diagnosis. If she has associated prolonged or frequently intermittent fever or she has joint pain or swelling,it's significant. Anyway it's good for you to get a second opinion from a rheumatologist.
