Hello I know you posted this about month ago but I was curious what your outcome was. My situation is similar to yours. My ana screen was and my pattern was speckled and my doc thought it was RA or lupus. It matched my symptoms: muscle and joint pain, hair loss, fatigue and chest pain. The rhematoid doctor told me its was fibro. It didn't make sense to me. I have a family history of RA and multiple sclerosis. So I was wondering what became of your situation. Please let me know. Thanks
