The Hematologist called earlier and confirmed what my Neurologist told me. There is NO AMYLOIDOSIS, there is NO evidence of it in the bone marrow, the marrow is totally normal, iron is normal, blood cells are normal and everything else, YAY.

I was very worried for weeks but now I can rest easy. In Amyloidosis, abnormal cells fight your immune system and take over your tissues and can result in organ failure and a whole bunch of other horrible stuff like cancer but I can say for sure I DO NOT HAVE IT. What a relief, time to party. lol

Good news is welcome for a change, can I go to the party pleeeeeese.
 
LOL thanks, yes good news is very good for a change. Sure you can. lol Get this, in APRIL ALONE, I went to the doctor SIX TIMES and I'm not even sick. lol 2 times for the Neurologist, 2 times with the Hematologist, 1 with the surgeon that took the fat pad biopsy and once with the Ear, Nose, throat specialist and t hey all took something out of me. lol

So glad to not have Amyloidosis cause that would have involved chemo and a whole bunch of other stuff, ugh. Didn't want that.

6 visits, do me a favour try to take a rest from it for awhile. At lest something good came of it.
 
YAH, I only have one appointment in May and that is day after tomorrow with the gynecologist to see if I have a yeast infection but that's it. Not going to anymore doctors until June. lol
