A disease in which "amyloid," an abnormal type of protein, accumulates in various organs, causing damage. Affected areas can include the heart, kidneys, and gastrointestinal tract. The causes are diverse.
Typical Symptoms of Amyloidosis
- Pain across the entire body
- Repeated abdominal pain with no known cause
- Blood in stool
- Noisy breathing; e.g. wheezing, rattling
- Numbness of the fingers
- Losing consciousness
- Dizziness
- Joints feel warm
Diagnostic Questions for Amyloidosis
Your doctor may ask these questions to check for this disease:
- Do you have body-wide pain?
- Have you had repeated abdominal pain with no known cause?
- Do you have blood in your stool?
- Is your breathing noisy, like wheezing or rattling?
- Do you have wrist numbness?
Treatment of Amyloidosis
There is currently no cure for amyloidosis, so treatment focuses on slowing the disease and managing symptoms. As organs become damaged, treatments like dialysis or organ transplants may be needed.

Male, 20s
My experience was great. I was worried, but the symptom checker helped me narrow down what it might be. I feel a little relieved compared to when I first started, and it gives me a starting point for what my symptoms could mean.

Male, 50s
The questions asked and possible causes seemed spot on, putting me at ease for a next-step solution.
(Sep 26, 2024)
Female, 40s
I was actually very impressed with the results it provided because, although I didn’t mention it during the questionnaire because I thought it was unrelated, it suggested I may have something I’ve actually been diagnosed with in the past.
