I feel like I wasn’t taken seriously because of my age
I am 21F. My GP got me blood tests because I complained about joint pain and my mom has an autoimmune disorder. My ANA was slightly positive and so was CRP. The test for ANA did not have a titer and i expected to be tested for that at the appointment. I also had a negative RF but when tested for IGA, IGG, and IGM the IGA was 15 units (normal under 6). From my research IGA is the least specific RF and could be because of my elevated liver enzymes. But we went over my history, and she determined she wouldnt test me for anything because she didn’t believe i had an autoimmune disease. She did determine that I am hyper-mobile and then sent me for hip xrays for abnormalities. the whole appointment took less than 30 minutes, X-ray included. She said she normally sees older people and did explain her reasoning i just dont feel right about how quick it went. If this is normal I’ll take it as such. I just feel a little dismissed. She had such good reviews on her profile, too.
Edit: I want to clarify she determined my positive ANA was a false positive.
