Hello and welcome to Chat Doctor, Primary amyloidosis is most commonly associated with multiple myeloma. Thus, certain investigations are required to look for multiple myeloma. Serum electrophoresis and urine electrophoresis are two investigations which will determine the status of proteins in blood and urine. Additionally, a CT scan of the spine is also required to look for evidence of multiple myeloma. Primary amyloidosis improves with improvement of associated condition i.e. multiple myeloma. Consult your physician for clinical assessment and relevant investigations. Thanks and take care Chat Doctor.
