What could my doctor be overlooking? ANA 1:1280

Good morning! I say I was misdiagnosed because my rheumatologist said I was misdiagnosed and that the anti-dsDNA test is equivocal. She said that patients with lupus have very high levels of anti-dsDNA.
My RNP labs have been normal.
I will request that I’m tested for SPE. I mentioned the high IGA lab to my rheum and she said it was insignificant.
I appreciate your response!

Some lupus patients have high anti ds DNA especially those with kidney involvement but some have normal or low levels. I would research this topic yourself to see if you agree. Have you considered a second opinion? A rheumatologist consult at your university hospital clinic might be very helpful.
