@Hi, Teresa. No, not much treatment, I think, other than tape to the next toe. Except that I am concerned about losing calcium in my bones. That is the norm in most forms of Amyloidosis, especially hATTRwt. We shall see.

Hi @oldkarl, are you taking any calcium supplements? I'm supposed to take 1200 mg daily but I've stopped it because it binds me up pretty good. I have been thinking of trying the calcium chews as I've heard they are better and don't cause the constipation that the standard pills do. In the mean time I've add collegen to my daily routine which is good for the joints, nails, and hair (as if I had any to worry about!). I know it's really helped with the fingernails and toenails. I've even gotten my wife on it. I use the Great Lakes, Collagen Hydrolysate Gelatin which mixes pretty well in cold water.
