    Absolutely fascinating.

    My asthma/atopy link is well established (although the oft-associated acid-reflux doesn't seem to show up).

    The wife's hypertension/renal issues are scarily close to the diabetes which also run in the family.

    The connections with the blue cancer dots are endlessly fascinating.

    Wish I could see each and every little bubble, as opposed to the 80% or show they actually have named.
