Hi Smirleygirl

Welcome to NeuroTalk .

Elevated levels of anti-AChR antibodies are usually strongly diagnostic of MG.

However elevated levels of these antibodies can also occur in people with Lambert Eaton Syndrome; this is a "false-positive" result as far as diagnosis of MG is concerned. These antibodies are not associated with POTS.

Maybe this is what applies to you.

Best wishes.
