Patient's question:
I might be pregnant, and I'm going to get a blood HCG test tomorrow!Please ask: Will the accuracy of the blood HCG test tomorrow be reduced because I've eaten a lot of oily foods these days (including today)!!!!??
Note: 1. These days (including today), I haven't just eaten a little, but a lot of oily foods!!!!
2. I know that the above issue won't change the HCG level in the blood. I'm asking if the above issue could lead to a reduction in the accuracy of the blood HCG test tomorrow.
Doctor's answer:
There may be some effects, generally seen in fasting tests, and it may take 10 days before it can be detected.
