--- "Are amyloid proteins involved in ALS?"

I do not believe so. Sclerotic conditions in tissue are something quite different. Your doc should have far more to say on this. Hope all is well enough with you and yours.

In 2012 my mother died of Amyloidosis. She had been taking chemo treatments for a type if lung cancer.

It deposited amayloid protein in soft tissue in the circulatory system. It deposited in several places, but it stiffened the muscles in her heart and it simply quit.
