Antibiotic when Spinal Tap was done.......
 
Does anyone know if taking an antibiotic when Spinal Tap was done would affect the results for MS.

I just realized I was taking an antibiotic during that time and am fearing my tap wasn't accurate!!!

Any Help would be appreciated!

I'm not sure? What did your Doc say?

I would think not. The anti-biotic would probably not effect the spinal/brain fluid.

i don't think so either.
if they were doing the tap because they thought you had meningitis, well, maybe. but not for what they're looking for for MS.
