Dr. Rania, is there a blood test enough to know if we have lupus? my rheumato can't answer me before thursday until she can get her hands on my medical file, and I'm worried, but I have blood tests

Dr. Rania Mousa General Medicine
Be patient ,the result of group of blood tests and lab tests all together with symptoms you have will point to a lupus disease .
i mean it is not a one test so that if it is high we diagnose lupus but rather group of tests and results if most of them are positive then beside symptoms the doctor will diagnose lupus .
you can't know by yourself ,just calm ,be patient ,wait,and when the doctor is ready ,do the tests that are related to lupus ,the doctor know them ,and after the doctor will estimate the results and either diagnose or not lupus condition.
