Being new to all this can someone explain what the best process would be to get tested for food allergies? Maybe have my GI send me to an allergist for all the food tests? Would gluten be the only one that i'd have to get done with a stool sample from Dr Fine? I want to armed with info when i go to ...

Positive ANA test w/high titers

Good afternoon all, I'm new to the forum and was just diagnosed with MC. My question to all of you is have any of you tested positive to the ANA test?
