Guest guest Posted March 4, 2005 Report Share Posted March 4, 2005 I know in Atlanta, the hospital is at least a few blocks from the lab, so I think there's a tiny bit of leeway. I thought the NADH testing was interesting, as I don't recall that being done on my muscle biopsy (I could be wrong, I'm hunting down my records), and I seem to respond to NADH supplementation. I also know that Atlanta sends out certain tests, so I assume those tests don't have to be done on fresh muscle (Duke Univ. rings a bell, as does the Mayo Clinic as places samples are sent out to).

Guest guest Posted March 4, 2005 Report Share Posted March 4, 2005 I could be wrong about Mayo, but thanks for confirming Duke. I really need to get a hold of my HMM report, the last thing I remember is *maybe* left it at a doctor's office for them to copy and return, and maybe they never returned it (the reports are like 60 pages).

Guest guest Posted March 4, 2005 Report Share Posted March 4, 2005 RH The skin that is also taken with the biopsy in Atlanta is sent to Duke for complex II testing. I don't remember anything going to Mayo, but I could be wrong. laurie > > Reply-To: > Date: Fri, 04 Mar 2005 23:40:15 -0000 > To: > Subject: Re: fresh muscle biopsy > > > > I know in Atlanta, the hospital is at least a few blocks from the > lab, so I think there's a tiny bit of leeway.

Guest guest Posted March 4, 2005 Report Share Posted March 4, 2005 RH Something I would suggest is to make an extra copy of the 60 pages and keep them as a back-up. I also keep an extra copy in the back of my notebook, just in case. laurie > > Reply-To: > Date: Sat, 05 Mar 2005 00:19:15 -0000 > To: > Subject: Re: fresh muscle biopsy > > > > I could be wrong about Mayo, but thanks for confirming Duke.

Guest guest Posted March 5, 2005 Report Share Posted March 5, 2005 I think the reason I didn't make a copy before is that it was bound and I didn't want to mess it up. I should have done it of course, in retrospect. Also, our firesafe is pretty small, barely fits single 8.5 x 11 sheets, so it didn't fit in there. Perhaps part of me wanted to shut out the results from my mind, as they were worse than I suspected, and several areas had no interpretation.
