About this test

Our ANA blood test helps detect antibodies that may indicate autoimmune activity in the body. It's a useful first step in investigating symptoms like fatigue, joint pain, dry eyes, or rashes, guiding further testing if needed. This test doesn't provide a diagnosis but offers valuable insights for understanding potential autoimmune conditions, such as lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, or Sjögren's syndrome.
