Prissy I'll get you official information on the Urine BA here is what I can tell you myself - There is no fasting, it can be done anytime of the day, a fresh urine catch is required, it is sent off to a lab (here it goes to Univeristy of TN) and has a much smaller range of good/bad. The Urine BA doesn't tell you as indefinately if there is a shunt, it tells you no shunt, or you have a problem, either MVD or shunt, which you have to retest with a fasting blood serum test. You don't HAVE to wait, since blood isn't drawn, you can re-test immediately. I'll see what other information I can get together for you. |
