About chronic bronchiectasis. Several sources name this as a Positive Obligate sign of Gelsolin, or some call it Finnish Amyloidosis. There is little you can do about this old Viking Hell, except treat the crap as it comes along. Skin, brain, teeth, toes, heart, nerves, whatever. The OMIM number is 137350 or 105120 or 612557. There are more, but just put in GSN. It's easier. Systemic, either dominant or recessive, fatal, progression can often be slowed by heavy injections of Methotrexate. Mine has been. I have a list of about 200 recognized signs and symptoms, plus a bunce of other DNA issues related to GSN, such as FKTN, ZNF189, BAAT, etc.
