Age is just a number. I was 83 when diagnosed with AL amyloidosis. Was fortunate (???) to be in excellent physical condition at that point. Kidney doc was reluctant to do biopsy on my kidneys until she met me. Although with some heart and kidney damage, I am doing fine at age 87--am much weaker but have adjusted.
Unfortunately , doctors tend to broad brush folks in their 80s to be un-treatable. I had difficulty getting doctors to initially identify me with amyloidosis.

Jim has wild type and he has lots of falls. We have now made our house more wheelchair friendly along with lots of equipment in the bedroom. Sometimes I think it is amazing how he keeps trying.

Are they doimg any good? I am trying to get in there now.

We went to Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN.

Vern, one cardiologist didn’t want to bother with my husband because at the time he was 85, he said go home and talk to your local Dr. We are from a small community and they know nothing about Amyloidosis. We got connected with a Cardiologist specializing in Cardiac Amyloidosis. She is great and Jim feels the meds are helping. It’s kind of a one day at a time. The main thing is don’t give up and find a new Dr if you don’t thing the one you are with is helping.
Wishing all of you the best. ❤️
