No, fasting is not required for the antimitochondrial antibody (AMA) test. This blood test is used to help diagnose autoimmune conditions, particularly primary biliary cholangitis. You can eat and drink normally before the test, but it's always best to follow any specific instructions given by your healthcare provider.
