Default Antibody test tomorrow
So I go for my first MG antibody test tomorrow. I am thinking I should do some extra physical activity just to be safe. Any other suggestions?
thanks,
kathie

LOL, don't waste your energy. It will have no effect.

Are you being tested for ACHR and MuSK antibodies? I would make sure to be tested for both.

Good luck!

Yes both MG antibodies as well as anca antibodies and muscle enzymes and protein electophoresis and I have an MRI of the brain next week. I hope something comes back positive so they can treat something.

Very good! They certainly seem to be covering their bases.

Hang in there. I know the testing process can be so stressful!
