Dear doctor,
I am a woman , 47 years old. I have weakness in my eyes muscles. M y eyes doctor sent me to do some tests to Myasthenia Gravis. The blood test result to antibodies to the acetylcholine receptor
was 0.2.
I should do also the Single Fibre EMG.
My questions are:
Is there a normal account to antibodies to the acetylcholine receptor? Or a healthy man or women don't have acetylcholine antibody at all? What does it mean 0.2 ? Is there another possible reason to have 0.2 antibody acetylcholine?
The second question:
Is the Single Fibre EMG fiber is a painful test and is it possible that it will cause any damage of any kind?
Thanks in advance
Rachel
