Today there actually will be a needle biopsy on my kidneys this afternoon sometime, to see if my condition has somehow actually worsened from a "minimal change" type to something else, for a lack of a more basic and thorough explanation. I feel like these close instances of losing the albumin repeatedly can really mean something, and this is the only way to find out if there really could be something more to this or not.

I'm a living medical mystery, b/c doctors and specialists alike still don't completely understand this kind of condition, and are conducting heavy research to this day. It doesn't help that since things can't be predicted due to the mysterious nature of it, it's just that much scarier for me and I'm sure everyone else of my "kind" that has this or any case worse than this.
