positive AMA titre ratio

[Magicsoul]

Hi, can anyone explain.

In 2015 when my AMA antibodies were detected the results were strong positive AMA with a titre of 1 to the ratio 800. The test was repeated 3 times over a year with the same results.

Hi, I was diagnosed with PBC in 2016. My AMA has always been 1/800 titre, I do not think that the numbers correlate to the severity of the condition so I would not worry about that number. I presume that you are taking Ursodeoxycholic acid for PBC. Hope this has helped.

Thanks but no I’m not on any medication

Why you not on meds. What was your diagnosis

In 2015 I had strong positive AMA 1:800 and biliary dyskinesia. Doc said it’s highly likely I have PBC but with no symptoms and normal LFT I was discharged back to GP no meds. Had my gallbladder removed privately during covid era so not had any follow up since 2016 from gastroenterology.
