Anyone have high ANA levels with their lyme? I happened upon a new doctor, very caring and wants to help me get well. Not a lyme guy, so maybe a dead end but he did find high ANA levels. I've had slot of autoimmune ruled out but maybe the lyme is causing havoc. At least he can see that my immune system is not right.

My mom has high ANA + speckled pattern along with thyroid issues and turns out she has Lyme.

I popped positive for ANAs as well. My LLMD says that can happen with Lyme.

Our daughter had a high ANA speckled type as well. With 2 years of treatment (started April 2011) for bartonella and not specifically for lyme, the ANA came back as normal in Sept 2013.
