A Small Part of Mark Egly's Personal Medical History and Health Miracle

Pain

Over the last 30 years, Mark has had three not-at-fault auto accidents. In two accidents, Mark was hit by individuals texting and hitting Mark with their vehicles at high speeds. These three accidents resulted in multiple back, neck, and shoulder injuries, with fractures. What is the relevance here? The pain Mark experienced from the accidents, and all the previously present inflammation has now diminished immensely. In the future, similar pain for individuals should be controlled and managed significantly better for others with similar pain situations. Over these 30 years, Mark's pain was attributed and related to car accidents, and that typical medication should help. With Alpha1 Antitrypsin and knowledge of the pain source for Mark, the overall pain is being dealt with much healthier methods without the potential side effects of other treatment methods prescribed at the time.

Blood Tests

• Historically, Mark's blood tests before the diagnosis of Alpha1 Antitrypsin Deficiency always come back perfect by insurance applications and annual physical standards.
• For 25 years, almost every physician considered Mark a hypochondriac because his blood work was always perfect!
• Mark's demand for testing for AATD because of his lifelong research and potential diagnosis of AATD in 2018 is what changed his life and health positively. (At the time of Mark's self-diagnosis, only 8,000 individuals had ever been diagnosed with AATD!) Even with complaints of a constant cough for decades, pain, and multiple chest x-rays over the last 30 years, no physician saw fit to test for Alpha1 Antitrypsin Deficiency.
