My sister has not been diagnosed with anything, but has lost weight (more than 14 lbs) and is frequently exhausted with pains in the limbs. She thinks it is worse when she is cold. Her doctor has taken blood tests, and keeps getting a non-specific indication of something wrong with her. She has too much protein in her blood - not all strands at the same level, but overall too high (whatever that means!) Her thyroid levels are OK according to the tests.

Over the years she has had a few problems which make me think she has HMS, same as me. She has some of the loose joints etc.

Can anyone shed any light on this blood test?
