Been distracted as my brother's been admitted to hospital for the 2nd time with dramatic weight loss - c. 4 stones overall, 8 lbs in the last week. He had an endoscopic examination today when the surgeon took biopsies at three points, starting at the small intestine and travelling upwards. Samples off the lab and the waiting begins....
