Default Does medications affect Antibody tests?
I have a new Neurologist that ordered Antibody blood test among other tests. I've been on Mestinon, Predisone and other medications (17+ yrs) for MG and was wondering if those medications could affect Antibody Blood test. I just think it's waste of money and time to repeat my test after being diagnosed years ago. Hopefully it doesn't, I don't want to go back years and start all over again with negative results! I've been reading about the nightmares others have gone through when they have negative test results.
Thank you in advance!
