ATTENTION: Jimmylegs-Netherlands daughter
Posted: Sun Sep 10, 2006 6:19 pm
Well Jimmylegs--my daughter called and read me her blood test results. Her bilirubin results??? Unable to assay. Interfering substance present. Samply grossly lipemic. (Am sure you know this is fat, plain and simple.)
This was for both the total and direct tests. And of course we know what the bilirubin tests---THE LIVER!! Damn! If they can't even get a reading how in the hell do they know her liver is doing fine!!!
This just sounds so incompetent to me. It sounds like they are "complying" with the FDA "reminder" to regularly test the liver by simply going through the motions.
My daughter is really P _ _ _ E D! She is calling tomorrow to get the results of her most recent blood test. Apparently they never even told her to fast before the test.
What exactly is up with these jerks?
She continues to experience dramatic improvements! Still "holding my breath"!
(To all: Please forgive my rather forceful words--I just get so frustrated sometimes with the "experts"! I know she is just another patient to them but she is my daughter and I adore her with every ounce of my being!)
