@elisabeth007 @becsbuddy My apologies, I am feeling pretty graceless at the moment and am floundering to cope with the "unexpected". I have an appoint with a Rheumy for this Friday and will go-if only to get an interpretation of the test results and expect she will want to run further tests and will post when I find out more.

No need to apologize, @rebaba. Of course you are nervous and want and need some answers. The rheumatologist may, or may not, be able to interpret the lab results, and may want more tests done. She is likely to base her diagnosis more on symptoms and your history. Just remember that autoimmune disorders are giant puzzles!
Be sure to go to the appointment relaxed and with an open mind. What do you think could be the worst thing that comes out of the appointment?
