Will an antibiotic cause an inaccurate test result for MG or will the antibiotic not be an issue?
I am just worried I will get a false positive or false negative because of the antibiotic I'm taking.
Thanks!

I don't think any of us are qualified to give an answer like this (with the exception of Alice), I would call the neuro back and let him know the situation. My guess is its alright as the only thing I was told was no MG meds and no caffeine, but as I said, not qualified to give you an answer.
