Yes my Ana always comes back negative but I'm in positive ranges for the double stranded DNA antibody, smith igg antibody, and rnp igg antibody not sure what it means. I have been researching negative Ana lupus as I have a lot of systemic lupus systems but show negative Ana all the time I have tested positive for discoid lupus

Thank you so much for this information!

When i was having really bad body aches dr checked for lupus and came bakc negative. It took a while for the test to come back positive.

That happened to me once and took another six months test and For sure tested positive for AnA

Yes! I've heard that happens quite often.
