So, I am still waiting on my Musk antibody tests and starting to get nervous as to what they will do if it is negative. Annie mentioned that they are still discovering more MG antibodies, so I did a little research and this is what I found. Researchers have found three types of striational antibodies: antibodies to titin, ryanodine receptor (RyR), and Kv1.4 (Voltage-gated K channel (VGKC)) as well as Anti-striated muscle antibody (anti-SM Ab) and low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 4 (LRP4) associated with MG. Has antibody ever had blood tests or positive results to these antibodies? Does anyone know of any more antibodies associated with MG?

thanks
kathie
