The ANA can show different patterns and levels of antibodies which can point to specific diseases.
The first ANA testing I had only showed an antibody number, like a simple basic ANA test. Later I was tested and it was a very specific testing with many results, which was much more specific.
ANA seems to be very confusing doesn't it?
Does that help you at all?
