Hi KMEB,

Thanks for your feedback and kind thoughts!

Not a nice place for you to be, in diagnostic no-mans-land regarding Amyloidosis. Wouldn't you be deteriorating fast if you had A? Perhaps that is an assumption on my part that you aren't deteriorating -forgive me, if so!

I suppose my reasoning for myself is that I have been unwell for 14 months now and have not worsened hugely apart from the pulmonary symptoms, and I'm not in the sex demographic for Amyl (66% males - still I suppose that leaves 33% females. Shivers!!)

The Pulmonologist told me that he would be on the lookout for amyloid plaques and doing a biopsy would be one of the things he would perform. I'm sure it will be negative though!
