And I see you have fibromyalgia which is in the autoimmune disease category so that could be what's making yours high

So I had went to a rheumatologist cause my ANA was positive as well they checked me for lupus and other things but the dr had told me there is several things that could trigger a positive ANA it could be weight, inflammation, swelling.. stuff like that but with me it is cause I have 4 different autoimmune diseases you may want to check for the autoimmune diseases since it's that high
