Just to split some hairs:since ANA is showing autoimunity
i don't have ANA, not even close...that's the thing..i kinda suspect MCAS but just don t want to start again going to doctors..especially since MCAS is very hard to diagnose aswell...
yes..i meant the anti nuclear antibodies..wich i test twice for them and come back negative ...as for anaphylaxis ,is a hallmark of mcas or not?..thanksI think you guys are using “ANA” to mean two different terms. ANA is the abbreviation for anaphylaxis but it is also the acronym for “anti nuclear antibodies” (general test for autoimmunity) in case this helps.
