After Treatment

After treatment for amyloidosis ends, talk with your doctor about developing a follow-up care plan. This plan may include regular physical examinations and/or medical tests to monitor your recovery for the coming months and years.

Long-term follow-up care for amyloidosis includes regular and careful monitoring of liver and kidney function. Your health care team will also focus on controlling the underlying disease, if there is one.

People treated for amyloidosis are encouraged to follow established guidelines for good health, such as maintaining a healthy weight, not smoking, eating a balanced diet, and having recommended screening tests. Talk with your doctor to develop a plan that is best for your needs. Moderate physical activity can help rebuild your strength and energy level. Your doctor can help you create an appropriate exercise plan based upon your needs, physical abilities, and fitness level. Learn more about healthy living.
