AQP-4 / NMO Blood Results
Hi folks 👋🏻
Don’t suppose anyone else has had blood tests done for Aquaporin 4/to find out whether they may have NMO?
If so, could you hazard a guess at how long it should take for results to come back?
Thanks ☺️
Hope today has been good!
I was tested when I was in the hospital and it took about a month, but I was told it’s not always accurate so my specialist ordered a specialty test and it also took about a month to get the results.
Hey, I’m a noob so this is my first post! 🙃 I was just at my neurologist appointment yesterday and I am still not diagnosed yet as they want to test for NMO first and other ‘MS mimics’ (i thought I was done with all the blood tests clearly not!) said to me it would be about 4 weeks and it has to be sent to Oxford (I live in Glasgow). Hopefully yours will roughly be the same, but I thought you had been diagnosed with MS surely they should have done the NMO test before diagnosing? Hope this helps!
