@isadora2021 You're welcome! It is a 2.5 hr drive each way for me to get to those appointments. I usually am able to coordinate them onto one day, to avoid unneeded miles on me and my car ;)) That drive time allows me to hash and rehash a lot in my mind. There have been a few times when I stop and do some writing.

Analyzing, recognizing trends, understanding the how and why a set of labs might be "off" makes it a challenge to me, and helps offset the scared feelings and all. My case is an admitted "complicated" one according to all my team, and the more information I can get, the better, the fewer dark corners.
