Thank you so much Ginger! I will certainly review the links that you’ve provided! Greatly appreciated!! I am fearful and of course apprehensive— but I’m very hopeful all will be well following this journey! Thanks!

I would like to view the video but receive a message that it is not available. My husband was diagnosed in March with Wild AttR primarily impacted his heart. He recently had a fat pad biopsy that had a "negative" result noted on his portal. I'm trying to determine what that means. It has been quite a long haul and few medical providers in our area ... South Central PA.... have any experience with Amyloidosis. His last scheduled test is for a Nuclear PET Scan in two weeks. We are concerned with the lack of expertise including communication and management of this disease. Mayo Clinic is quite a distance. Are there telemedicine consultations available? Thanks.
