Natops Posted April 4, 2014 Report Share Posted April 4, 2014 Hello. Have any of you tested positive for Nicotinic acetylcholine receptor antibodies? If so, what disease do you think you have or been dx with? What are your symptoms? Going through my old test Ive been tested for Acetylcholine Receptor Binding (three times) and AChR Ganglionic Neuronal AB (twice). All the times they have come back negative. Im going to check with my neurologist to see if these are the same or different then the Nicotinic Achr AB. I get confused on these different test !

E Soskis Posted April 6, 2014 Report Share Posted April 6, 2014 Yes - +antibody indicates a neurological autoimmune disease (I have AAG) - or, it can point to a carcinoma - primarily lung cancer.....I'm not an expert in this field - I have read a bit since being diagnosed with AAG - I really don't understand how all the different antibodies work to point toward or against certain diseases - and frankly, I think most physicians don't understand it very well either!
