Confused by notes on Hep2 ANA test from Guys Hospital
Can anyone help me please? I have had some blood test results from Guys Hospital but one of them has left me stumped. The Hep2 ANA results States "ToConfr"..... What does this mean? The ANA titre was 1/40 speckled (has previously been much higher) Does anyone know? Thanks.

Nerve entrapment
Hi my name is Heidi, I have had right hand side chronic pelvic pain for 5 years now, since the day after hysterectomy surgery! It took 2 years to get a diagnosis as the surgeon refused to acknowledge there was anything wrong and told me I must have fallen and sprained my hip! It has been nothing short

Here we go again??
I'm trying not to think what I called this post - I'm trying very hard to stay with what I know and not leap into 'what ifs' Most of you know the multiple and very complex surgeries I've had and the progression of my spinal issues. If you don't, and you're interested enough they're on my profile. So

I have been on Levo for over 21 years, (100mcg), but recently, (don't know whether the menopause has "kick started" anything, am 57), have been feeling more tired, and the "brain fog" is worse. I was diagnosed with "Fibromyalgia" in 2009, and so they say that's why I am tired. :confused: I started

Three 'mild' positive Anti DsDNA tests, negative ANA, low C4.. Literally losing my hair!
Hi all, I've posted previously regarding my two positive DsDNA tests, but with negative ANA tests. I was informed by the nurse at Guys that the bloods are likely a bit of a fluke or an issue with the lab, because typically they would see a positive ANA with Lupus not just DsDNA and I'd probably be referred

I have been back on the full dose for a few days and already am less tired, so I think
