@devineone Good morning to you. Have his cardiac Dr, oncology Dr, and nephrologist had a conference together yet, to make sure all are on the right protocol? That might be a place to start....

Yes they all concur at this time, we will have a meeting with Oncologist on Sept 6 which will be after 4or5 treatments. Seems none of the docs have dealt with ESRD and ALAmy at the same time, as it seems to be rare. His kidney failure was not due to AMY,

@devineone Bet 6 Sept can't come soon enough for you. Please let us know what happens, and come back to vent or discuss as you need to.
