PFAPA diagnosis
My daughter is presumed to have PFAPA. Her doc ordered labs for a Basic Metabolic Panel, Hep Function Panel, C-Reactive Protein, & Sedimentation Rate. He ordered the labs specifically for the middle of her non-flare time to make sure she doesn't have any underlying autoinflammatory issues. She came down with a cold though. Will this affect labs?
