It was blood draw with many other labs. My only thought is that I use hand sanitizer a lot and did before the test. I read somewhere if it is on your skin it could affect the test

If it was blood draw, less likely the hand sanitizer affected anything. Although it’s still a possibility.

A finger prick is more likely to be affected by the hand sanitizer, basically “site contamination”, and yes there has been some research done on that.

Just trying to think of anything.
