I just got the blood test for genetic testing, most for brca gene. i totally forgot that i've been on antibiotics for an ear infection for a few days. i called to tell them but still haven't heard back. would this interfere with the test?

No. Taking antibiotics would not affect the results of the genetic test. Wish you good health!
