Hey Greg,

That is a bummer that after that painful experience you went through training a doctor in how to do a BMB, it isn't usable.

But also very interesting how Dr. Olnes analyzed the information he got. We tend to get so focused on every little variation in the labs -- this was a good reminder than statistical variations must also be considered.

On another subject, have you had a urinary copper excretion test?

Regards, Catherine
