Hello. Thank you for posting.
I'm sorry to hear of your husband's ongoing health problems. Amyloidosis is a rare disease that occurs when a substance called amyloid builds up in your organs. Amyloid is an abnormal protein that is produced in your bone marrow and can be deposited in any tissue or organ. Amyloidosis can affect different organs in different people, and there are different types of amyloid. Amyloidosis frequently affects the heart, kidneys, liver, spleen, nervous system and digestive tract.
I hope the doctor (from Boston) will be able to help your husband
Keep us updated.
