Amyloidosis Found In The Breast

A MyAmyloidosisTeam Member asked a question 💭
Laurel, DE

I found out last Oct. that i had amyloidosis in my breast. At first was doing a biopsy for breast cancer, which I have had before. I wasn't told what type I had and no treatment was offered. Today I just had a spot on my breast opened up and the doctor things it was the amyloidosis. Someone help me with answers please.

Most major medical centers have speciality Amyloidosis clinics:
Cleveland Clinic, where I go, UPMC Pittsburgh, John’s Hopkins in Baltimore, Mayo Clinic, etc.

Hi Cathy!
I too am a breast cancer survivor. I agree with Eric, you need to find a amyloid specialist. I don't know where you live.
