@shookercooker How did you make out with your appointment at the Mayo Clinic in June? I hope you were able to get more definitive answers.
Wishing you good days ahead!

The cardiac MRI showed some thickening of the ventricle walls with amyloids in the tissues. Ejection rate was still a good 62%. Just 62% of a smaller pool to draw from. The kidney ultrasound was inconclusive however my nephrologist concluded that my diminished GFR with no proteinuria was enough proof of amyloidosis without subjecting me to a biopsy to confirm it. Since there is no treatment it's just trying to maintain a healthy lifestyle with some a different BP Med and Farxiga to keep the kidneys as healthy as possible for as long as possible.
