Auto-immune tests? Can someone list or link the names?

Hi everyone,

I will undergo IVF for the first time in the next few months. Our diagnoses are Male Factor (1% morph, 14% motil, high count) and tubal factor.

I do not have an auto-immune disease, but I do have fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome. I also have a relatively rare gene called HLA-B27 which makes me predisposed to getting a certain auto-immune disease. Because of this, I see a rheumatologist 2-3x a year for blood tests.

That said, I heard about "auto-immune tests", that some RE firms do them and some don't.
Can someone please list the tests for me or give me a link to a list? I may be getting these already at the rheumatologist. I have all my bloodwork results filed in the house, so I'd like to check them. I also want to see if my OBGYN did any of them, I think she did.

Many thanks. Sorry for the long post!

Thanks to both of you for these links! :) I want to get this stuff checked out in advance since I have a history of testing positive for ANA and have other immune related health issues.
