Some background information for you:

A SED Rate (Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate) measurement is a non-specific indicator of inflammation. It says nothing about the anatomical site(s) of inflammation nor what the cause(s) of it are.

An ANA (antinuclear antibody) test measures levels of ANA in your blood and which parts of cell nuclei they react with. Some autoimmune diseases (SLE and RA among others) can show unusual ANA results but they are not always very specific. Usually these are followed up with more specific investigations from a clinical immunologist.
