@medic_simmons You don't mention that you have had lab work on your liver-produced protein, such as SERUM FreeLite(c) chain or 24-hour urine collection for protein. Sounds like a progressive disorder which starts small (one cell), divides into a mis-formed thing, dies, and leaves behind a mis-shaped body to deal with.Pretty soon the dead cell bodies take over your tissues. Now, as you get older, your progressive dyscrasia is just beginning to make your life exciting. Anyway, Mayo is a good place to go if you can get into Morey Gertz' section quickly. I have had all the tests your have, and a whole lot more.
