I got my blood results back today, trying to make sense of them!

Has anyone else had a positive come back for ANA?

(ANA - antinuclear antibody test. screens for proteins that are present when the immune system fails to distinguish the body from foreign particles.)

I had all my results come back normal. From what I know, it's a test for autoimmune disease. This is where the body attacks it's own cells believing they are foreign. I guess in this sense it may be attacking the pregnancy as a foreign object that needs to be cleared up. Here's a link for some info. The good news is it sounds like there are treatments that may lead to successful pregnancy. good luck. I hope this means you get your bfp soon.
