Art Still's body felt the ravages of playing professional football for twelve years, but when he suffered atrial fibrillation, he sought medical attention.  His doctor suggested he undergo a genetic test, which revealed he had the variant for a disease known as amyloidosis.  While not cancer, if left untreated in a timely manner, it can lead to various types of blood cancer.  Early detection, periodic shots and medication will not get rid of the variant, but they will team up to keep from developing into blood cancer.  Art pays attention to diet, exercise and the right amount of sleep, and says he enjoys a healthy lifestyle.   Art accepted carpal tunnel syndrome, trigger finger and a torn biceps muscle as the byproducts of his NFL career, but atrial fibrillation was different. Through the National Football League Players Association, he went to New Orleans for a thorough physical and mental examination. His doctor suggested Art undergo a genetic test to see if Art had a variant for amyloidosis, a disease which if left untreated can be linked to various types of blood cancer.  A brother of his had undergone heart replacement, and another brother needs one.  That combined with the suggestion from the doctor was enough to get Art to take the test, and sure enough, it indicated he had the V122I variant, which Art says affects one in 25 African-Americans.   He is now on a regimen that includes medications and periodic shots.  It will not rid Art of the variant, but keeps it at bay so that it doesn't become cancerous, affecting other organs like kidneys and the brain.   Art Still wants to maximize awareness of amyloidosis, and has established a website that provides a wealth of information on the subject so that like Art, others can get in front of the disease.   Additional Resources:   Art's website: https://www.amyloidosisarmy.org

Charles, a recently retired cardiologist of 53 years, speaks with David Rintell, Head of Patient Advocacy at BridgeBio, and Mandy Rohrig, Director of Patient Advocacy at BridgeBio Gene Therapy, about how his unexpected early diagnosis of ATTR-CM likely impacted the trajectory of his disease. Dr. Jonathan Fox, President and Chief Medical Officer of cardiorenal programs at BridgeBio, explains how ATTR affects the heart and peripheral nervous system, and the importance of early diagnosis.   For years, Charles suffered from numbness and tingling in both wrists and hands. Eventually, when the pain became so severe that operating a mouse for 10 to 15 minutes was difficult, he was referred to a hand surgeon who recommended carpal tunnel surgery. Preparing for the surgery, Charles recalled reading a medical journal article that indicated 10% of people who underwent carpel tunnel surgery had positive tissue biopsy indicative of ATTR-CM. He requested that his surgeon perform a biopsy and shortly thereafter received his diagnosis. The transition from doctor to patient was not easy for Charles. However, he feels fortunate to be a cardiologist, to have read and remembered the article, requested a biopsy, and received the diagnosis more quickly than many others who live with ATTR. “I have three passions: running, traveling, and teaching," Charles shared. The early diagnosis has allowed him to continue to live a full, active life, running nearly daily as he has for the past 45 years. Charles, now 86, continues to serve others, spending his retirement teaching and mentoring health care providers around the country about ATTR and volunteering for amyloidosis advocacy organizations.

In this episode of Talk With a Doc, we delve into a remarkable story of resilience and innovation. Howard "H" White, the man instrumental in building the iconic Jordan Brand at Nike, Inc., is now championing a new cause--the Howard "H" White Center for Cardiac Amyloidosis. Join host Jennifer Semenza as she speaks with Dr. Jacob Abraham, section head for advanced heart failure, and Dr. Jenna Kay, medical director of the new Howard “H” White Center for Cardiac Amyloidosis, both from the Providence Heart Institute. They are joined by center namesake, Howard "H" White, Vice President for NIKE Inc.'s Jordan Brand, and heart transplant recipient. The Howard “H” White Center was established in honor of White, who relied on the expert care at Providence Heart Institute  in 2017 when he was diagnosed with cardiac amyloidosis—a progressive disease that hampers the heart's ability to pump effectively. This often under-diagnosed condition deserves significant attention, prompting Providence to launch this new center to support early detection, research, and treatment.With NBA legend Michael Jordan donating $1 million in support – along with donations from many patients and leaders in entertainment, sports and business – the center aims to improve healthcare equity, particularly as cardiac amyloidosis disproportionately affects the Black community.Tune in as our panel of experts shines a light on this vital health issue and the new initiatives at the Howard "H" White Center for Cardiac Amyloidosis.To learn more about the Howard "H" White Center for the Cardiac Amyloidosis, visit: Providence Heart Institute: Howard White Center

Cardiac Amyloidosis: No Longer Rare and Untreatable!      Guest: Omar F. Abou Ezzeddine, M.D., M.S. Hosts: Malcolm R. Bell, M.D.   Transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM), once considered rare, is more prevalent than previously thought. Diagnosing ATTR-CM is particularly important because there are now highly effective, specific therapies for ATTR-CM. In this podcast, we will provide a contemporary review of the diagnostic and therapeutic approach to patients with ATTR-CM in the current era.   Topics Discussed: When to suspect the disease & who to screen for ATTR-CM? How to diagnose and prognosticate ATTR-CM in the current era? Provide an overview of current and emerging therapies for managing ATTR-CM.   Connect with Mayo Clinic's Cardiovascular Continuing Medical Education online at https://cveducation.mayo.edu or on Twitter @MayoClinicCV and @MayoCVservices.

Sean joins David Rintell, Head of Patient Advocacy at BridgeBio, and Mandy Rohrig, Director of Patient Advocacy at BridgeBio Gene Therapy to share his journey with ATTR. In this episode, Sean describes his initial symptoms, which included carpal tunnel syndrome and numbness in his foot and ankle, the misdiagnosis he experienced, and his eventual diagnosis at the Cleveland Clinic in Abu Dhabi. While the diagnosis was a relief it was also difficult to accept and took an emotional toll on him and those around him. Sean has found this to be a common experience of many diagnosed with ATTR. Since Sean's form of ATTR is hereditary, various members of his family have also been tested. Sean also highlights the positive changes in his life, including meeting his wife, Robin, discovering a talent for drawing, and becoming a public speaker about ATTR. Jonathan Fox, President and Chief Medical Officer of cardiorenal programs at BridgeBio, joins us again to give a medical introduction to ATTR. On this episode, Jonathan highlights the differences of the ATTR T80 variant. Previously, we learned that ATTR amyloidosis is caused by the dissociation of a protein called transthyretin, or TTR, that changes its shape and forms into fibrous clumps. These clumps of misshapen protein are deposited into various organs and peripheral nerves, including the heart, which can cause them to function abnormally. Jonathan explains the possible origin of the T80 variant and how the T80 variant symptoms can differ from ATTR-CM.   To learn more about living with amyloidosis visit Mackenzie's Mission, www.mm713.org
