The disease journey for all patients is punctuated with important points along the way - such as diagnosis and treatment. Amyloidosis, being a complex and not-well known disease, makes the journey all the more turbulent. For example, tests may imply a false-positive, or ill-informed providers may not be fully versed on the disease, either of which could lead to a mis-diagnosis. Or deciding which treatment is the appropriate path for a patient is another inflection point. We know providers always seek to do the best for their patients; however, there may be times where having another provider provide their opinion may be appropriate. That’s the topic for this episode - seeking a second opinion. For an overview of amyloidosis, please see episode 2 (for clinicians) or episode 3 (for patients).
