    Hi Moyan. The lab tech or person helping in the lab is wrong about urine specimens. They give a lot of information about how the kidneys are working.

    OMG elephant, it mirrors a case here in Canada, Ontario where a oncology surgeon performed 3 mastectomies (breast removal) on healthy breasts, She misread the xrays. However she is definetly being sued.

    moyan she must be a new lab tech. Urine is a benchmark test for both bladder (ie. blood) and kidneys (ie creatinine, protein)

    Thats interesting. I was about to have a mascetomy until they discovered it was WG. Told it was stage 4 breast cancer. Lumps all gone in the breast now. If I hadnt nearly gone blind thats what would have happened.
    cheers Col 23
