Lab Questions

Post Body

I've posted here before about some abnormal lab results ordered by my primary Dr which led to going to a Rheumatologist a few days ago. He said he suspects I have MCTD. He did a bunch more tests and something that came back abnormal was that my free kappa light chains are high. Does anyone else with autoimmune conditions have this?

I'll post all my abnormal results so far.

Free Kapa light chain: 2.50

Free lambda light chain (normal): 1.63

Free K/L ratio (normal): 1.53

Autoimmune specific tests:

RNP SM Antibody: 8.0

RNP SM Interpretation: Positive

ANA Nuclear Antibody- Positive

ANA Pattern: speckled

ANA Titer- 1:1280

Other tests:

MCV: 81.4

MPV: 9.3

TIBC: 514

Transferrin: 367

Sedimentation rate : 22

Iron saturation: Just slightly low- 19
