[Guest guest]

I believe Dr Korsten is at New England Medical Center now but there are

people on this list who can give you contact information if you need it.

Sheila is one of them.

Oops, sorry. Putting my name in the subject field definately grabbed my

attention. )

I still don't have a home computer and life has been hectic for me lately. I

have not had much chance to read many of the posts.

Dr. Korson is at New England Medical Center (he is very nice)

You can contact his office at 1-, or by fax at 1-.

Here is the New England Medical Center website http://www.nemc.org/home/

Hope this helps.

I will be posting soon with my lab results that I totally do not understand.

Everything looks normal except maybe my " pyruvate levels " or something like

that. My interpretation (which I am sure I can be way off on)is that normal

ratio should be between 20 and 25, and mine was like 90. Again, let me post

the actual way it is written as I have no clue what I am talking about.

Hope everyone is doing ok....I am sorry I have not been around much. If need

be, put my name on the post and it will grab my attention.
