helpmyson Posted February 5, 2010 Report Posted February 5, 2010 Just curious here- My son had the DNASE and ASO Titers done a while back and they were negative. Dr. K wants to redo that which we are willing to do. My son is having a really difficult couple of days. Is it from past experience of everyone on this forum- that the blood work will show more during an "episode" or doesn't it matter. I am wondering if we should hurry and get this done while have an "episode" or is it ok to wait until next week. Thanks in advance.
ajcire Posted February 5, 2010 Report Posted February 5, 2010 I might be wrong but I don't think titers change quick enough for a week to matter...
mama2alex Posted February 6, 2010 Report Posted February 6, 2010 I found this in Buster's FAQ's. Hope this is helpful: "ASO rises approximately 1-4 weeks from colonization and Anti-DNAseB rises between 6-8 weeks from colonization."

Hope this is helpful: "ASO rises approximately 1-4 weeks from colonization and Anti-DNAseB rises between 6-8 weeks from colonization." How does taking antibiotics affect these scores? Does anyone know. I assume the antibodies decrease but does anyone know the timeframe for that?
