Cryoglobulinemia 

Diagnosis  

The diagnosis of cryoglobulinemia requires a blood test in which the sample must be maintained at the standard body temperature of 98.6°F (37°C) for a specific duration before undergoing cooling. It is crucial to handle the blood sample properly to avoid inaccurate test results. 

Treatment  

Treatment for cryoglobulinemia varies depending on the underlying cause and may involve medications to suppress the immune system or combat viral infections. In cases of severe symptoms, your doctor might suggest a procedure involving the exchange of your blood plasma, which contains a significant amount of cryoglobulins, with either donor plasma or a replacement fluid.
