Update: My Protein Losing Enteropathy

Update: My protein losing enteropathy

As I explained in prior writings about my PLE, it’s been discovered that I actually have menetrier’s Disease which has caused Albumin to leak/spill into my digestive tract.

I had a spleenic infarct a couple months ago, and am now trying to get serum cumadin levels where they are supposed to be to prevent further clotting.

When I had my blood tested Tuesday, it was discovered that (due to the octreotide I’m injecting myself with) my total serum protein was 6.2, and my albumin was 2.3. These levels are highter than my doctor has ever seen them.
