Question 1

for pathologist, 
paraneoplastic evaluation
tissue observation:

staining of hep2 cells suggests nuclear non-neuronal specific antibodies are present.

no fluorescence observed on neuronal tissue.

anything to this finding? is this normal?

Accepted Answer

Any symptoms?: Why were these tests done? All laboratory results need to be interpreted in the clinical context and the doctor who ordered the tests is usually in the best position to do that. Talk to the doctor who ordered the tests. Having said that, if you do not have any symptoms, you may wish to watch and wait.

Question 2

gyn did ana testing (first visit, routine checkup) that came back with pattern "cytoplasmic fluorescence". what does this mean?

Accepted Answer

Not significant: That pattern has no clinical significance. Why was the test ordered in the first place?

Question 3

cytoplasmic fluorescence on ana test in pattern of liver disease, further bloods negative, do  i need liver biopsy? or repeat tests later on?

Accepted Answer

Doubt it: Cytoplasmic fluorescence usually means nothing.  If your physician is not worried, i would not be either.  Your physician may order a tube test for anti-ro/ssa, etc., if these relate to the present concern. The workup of elevated liver enzymes / transaminases is too difficult to explain in 400 words -- glad you're taking a proactive approach in any case.

Question 4

is tilapia fish healthy??

Accepted Answer

Yes: Fish in  general are healthy.  Tilapia is not a fatty fish and doesn't contain as much healthier Vitamin D like salmon, herring, mackerel.  It helps with daily omega needs which the body doesn't make and helps to lower cholesterol.

Question 5

does fish contain calcium?

Accepted Answer

A small amount: Most fish is not a good source of dietary calcium. A fresh filet of certain types of fish has a small amount of calcium. Other foods (milk and spinach, for example) provide significantly more calcium per serving. Some processed fish products - such as sardines or canned salmon - may have some fish bone in them, which contains calcium.

Question 7

which kind of fish is best for gout?

Accepted Answer

Salmon: Any non "shell fish" would be good for gout, as long as it is not fried.

Question 8

does eating fish make you lose memory?

Accepted Answer

Fish and Memory: If eating fish is decreasing your memory, I would be very concerned about possible mercury heavy metal toxicity.   I would recommend a provoked urine test for heavy metals.

Question 9

is branzino a high or low mercury fish?

Accepted Answer

Low, as rated by...: Branzino (european seabass) is farmed in nova scotia, canada. It is rated as a best choice by the monterey bay aquarium seafood watch program. One can search their website for recommendations on any seafood. Same species of fish have more or less mercury, depending on where the fish is coming from.
