Hi all, is there a chemistry/lab test profile that appears common to PD? I'm not explaining my request very clearly: For example, tests results that in themselves aren't diagnostic of anything, but taken together might form a significant pattern. You can't discern a pattern by looking at only one case though. But by the time PD is dignosed, there are probably reams of lab test results for every patient, and this list would be an excellent concentration of these files. Here is a suggestion for discussion. And please forgive my ignorance if this is common knowledge. 1- if a common pattern in PD lab results exists, can someone please post it to the list? 2- if it doesn't exist, is there someone with the necessary skills (statistics and data-base matching, I think) who could take PDers lab results and see if a common pattern emerges? Please let me know what you think of this idea? Maryellen in Omaha Beginning to get an education online
