We just got a diagnosis within the family, there’s a real dearth of information that’s presented in an accessible way. I really appreciate that you guys are out here expanding what is available.
Will there be more Chats in 2025?
Just had a work friend pass away from this disease. I had to look up what it was. Thank you for this video.
Sorry for your loss Sandra. Thank you for sharing your story.
Great

This is the best explanation, but I’m only 63
I thought I was being silly when I told my cardiologist I had bilateral carpal tunnel and maybe I have amyloidosis. Then my K/L free chain ratio was high. Now I have a referral to a hematologist and a PYP scan coming up. I’m hopeful. Thank you for this video. I also saw 15 doctors, well, 17.
I really appreciate your efforts! I have a quick question: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). Could you explain how to move them to Binance?
Thanks
Very informative and descriptive video with 3D animation. Perfectly explained the process of disease formation and possible treatment effect. Highly recommend for watching even if you do not know anything about amyloidosis. Thank you!

Thank you for this detailed video! I have amyloidosis and started using Planet Ayurveda’s herbal supplements. They’ve helped me manage symptoms, and my cousin, who has a similar condition, has seen benefits too. Worth considering!
Hi Dan. Who is your doctor and what type of treatments are you receiving?
Thanks to team & channel, for this video on amyloidosis. I was diagnosed a few years ago, and Planet Ayurveda's herbal supplements have been a blessing. They've helped manage my symptoms effectively. My aunt also benefited from their products. Highly recommend for amyloidosis patients!
VELEZ JULY 14 2024. THANK. YOU.
Medical research has done wonders for the medical field, but unfortunately, it is unaffordable to many.
Thanks for sharing great content! My struggle with amyloidosis was daunting, but Planet Ayurveda’s supplements provided much-needed relief. My symptoms have lessened, and I feel healthier. A friend with the same condition also saw improvements. Highly recommend!
Mahamanjishthadi Kwath The formulation also helps in many skin related disorders due to its effect on blood. In rare conditions like amyloidosis the preparation works really well. thank you planet ayuveda
nice video. Planet Ayurveda's Aloe vitals capsule is a nutraceutical preparation which is very effective in maintaining healthy skin and digestive system.
For anyone battling Amyloidosis, Planet Ayurveda's treatment is the best. I've experienced incredible improvements.
I have been diagnosed with Mgus related to longterm use of sertraline, an SSRI. Thank you for this.
Its so impressive what medical reasearch has achived though out the years.
I was just diagnosed with amyloid cardiomyopathy because it's attacking my heart. I have too see a specialist at university of Michigan hospital for further evaluation for other organs with amyloidosis. I too was given vyndamax. Insurance didnt cover it, but grateful that Alliance rx was able to get some covered by insurance and the rest by the state. Otherwise it would be impossible to pay for. Cost here was $23,550.00. Hope your doing well. My journey with this has just begun.
Maybe next time ill b at d time. Poland dont know amyloidosis. 43 yrs and pissed off
For the pain, could you use CBD pil,?
Wow Love from India 🇮🇳
What an exceptional video! Your interview with the hATTR Amyloidosis Patient was conveyed in a remarkably clear and understandable manner for all viewers. I commend your seamless integration of elements like imagination, inspiration, and creativity into your content, which align perfectly with the themes of hope and meaning on my channel. I've liked and subscribed! Keep up the outstanding work!
I’m just trying 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅it’s iooooooooooooooooliii8,m😊
What did you do when you were working? I used my hands and I’m happy to have found out that I have this situation and the drug Vindimax.
I have the same type of Amyloidosis and now I take Vyndamax! It’s costly drug but my heart stated to me slows down the progression of the Amyloidosis. My Amyloidosis was discovered after having carpal tunnel surgery. I’m 80 years young and fortunatly all my test so far are reading good.
Super helpful! Great presentation!
Helpful
Very informative. Many thanks for making the time to prepare and provide the discussion Dr Hanna. Well done.
If I recall correcting, in the beginning segment it was interesting to hear her present the modern dietary advice saying somewhat ambiguously to "drop red and processed meats as much as possible" and then go on to say "exclude the processed meats like salami and prosciutto" but not really discuss the red meats any further. It's not the red meats.bought fresh and raw which aren't adulterated by preservatives and other things... not sure if it was intentional in this case, but thats what the Netflix show "You Are What You Eat: A Twin Experiment" did... argued that red meats are essentially harmful and meats in general while failing to distinguish between meats that are soaled in all kinds of preservatives and other ingredients that are especially harmful, nor breading and frying fish and chicken in high omega 6 seed oils that become so oxidized and rancid especially with repeated frying. These are the core reason why meats are associated with health risks. If they ate fresh, quality meats raised on the foods they're evolutionarily adapted to eating and not crammed into tiny enclosures im pathogen filled barns, then such meats are among the highest yeilding foods in nutrition. There's a lot of compromised science pushing plant based everything to reduce global consumption levels.
Great 👍
Super uh......🎉
Thank you
I am trying to find information regarding gastrointestinal symptoms of Wild Amyloidosis. Where can I find this information. Thank you.
