On 26th july i had an appointnent with vascular surgery doctor at 2.50pm. The thing was that the doctor could not find the result of the ultrasound scan which i had on the 14th july which meant that i had to go and have it again. I can back fronm the ultrasound scan and the doc was call on an emergency so i had to wait to be called when the doc came back. It was around 5.15pm when i was called in to see the doc. The doc do not know what i have and i sent me for phyiso. my next appointment is made for is in november maybe the might know what it is cause the doc was say that we have a meeting on friday that week so we will talk about ur case and see what other doctor think what it is. So when u come to the next appointment we might have the answer..

Sorry I am tardy.

CPR stands for cardio-pulmonary-resuscitation.

ESR stands for erythrocyte sedimentation rate. (A blood test measuring inflammation)

Serum Copper (blood levels) levels are useful tests for detecting copper deficiency. Copper is a component of many body proteins; almost all of the body's copper is bound within copper proteins. Unbound (free) copper ions are toxic.

I hope this helps and is what you were asking.

My Best to You.

Hi Gurneet,

I'm so VERY happy that you Ultrasound was NORMAL!!  That's wonderful news.

I'm really sorry but I DON'T know what it means if these particular things are High in your Blood Work.  I'm sure that a lot will depend on JUST how hight they are. I'm sure that they will work on getting them inot the normal range.

Please let us know how your doing.....Sherry

Hi Gurneet,

I'm really sorry but I don't know what the Dr.'s would want to do in a situation like that. I've never had that type of experience. Perhaps someone else will come along and have a better idea on this one.

I'm sorry if I let you down, I just don't know this answer....:).....Sherry
