Guest guest Posted October 23, 1998 Report Share Posted October 23, 1998 Hi everyone! I just wanted to send a little note to let you all know that we got some partial results from my aunt 's autopsy yesterday. These are just the results from the spinal and brain fluids. These tests confirmed for certain that died of CJD. The prions were everywhere in the fluid. We should be getting the results from the tissue testing in the next couple of weeks. Also, the doctors received her records from her brain surgery 6 years ago. And that answered another question... did have a dura matter patch. I was manufactured by a company in Germany. Something that started with a T..tydu, tydo? I can't remember today and the information I had on it is with my grandma. The doctors have decided that they are extremely certain that this is the cause of 's CJD. It's angering to know that this was caused by something that could have been prevented. However, it's good to know why and what as well. I am relieved to know that there is an explanation...no matter how horrible it is. Also, as a side note, I happened to catch the program last night on TLC. Very good program, speaks only of the nvCJD, however, something is better than nothing!
