elderly sufferer of amyloidangiopathy...

We were wondering if you could give us any info on amyloidangiopathy....an elderly woman friend has it and has been told there is nothing that can be done. Do you have anything to add to that about treatment for this disease?

Isn't amyloid a abnormal protein formed in the blood that
forms crystals and if the BP goes up they cut through blood
vessles causing Bleeds ?? If so I would think that changing
the blood chemistry might help.

Hi, Dana.

If expense is no object, I woudl recommend you go to the archives about Holistic Practitioners and get her some really modern treatment.

From MY standpoint: This is an autoimmune condition and there is an archive about that. A strict wellness program would help a lot even though it would take at least 6 months to see results which would increase for at least 2 years.

Let us know what she decides and how she does.
