Thanks Mig. It sounds like it can be hard to diagnose, depending on where the amyloid builds up. Unless you're game for multiple biopsies. lol If I have it, it'll be in my GI system, that much we know. I'm sure my kidneys are fine - I'd have alot of swelling otherwise. I don't really care what it is at this point, I just want to know, because this is getting insane.
I just got word that I was approved for another 12 month leave from my grad program. I guess they sort of have to. They tried to make it really difficult for me to request it, and they'll probably make it really hard for me to finish once I go back. They're pretty touchy about it, only because I'm told that alot of funding is dependent on how fast they get students through their degree programs. I kind of skew the stats and make them look bad. It's not like I mean to though!
