More initials...

Just taken more bloods to test the genetics of the graft (the new intestine). When matching an organ to a recipient they do an HLA test (HLA genes have historically been identified as a result of the ability to successfully transplant organs) and now they are going to delve deeper. There is a special laboratory here where this gets tested but results could be a while - doesn't sound like a straight forward test!!
