What Do The Blood Tests Show?
What direction are the doctors looking if my blood tests come back with a LOW lympho-auto, High neuro-auto and a HIGH neuro auto ABS? I have been dx with MS for 12 years but have also just recently had an ANA of 3.28 titer. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello and welcome to HCM,
A high neutrophil count and low lymphocyte count suggests acute infection.
Acute infection is commonly due to bacterial infection.
I would suggest you to consult your primary healthcare provider to look for evidence of bacterial infection.
Detection of ANA in blood is suspicious of connective tissue disorder.
Consult your doctor for further work up.
Thanks and take care
