摘要
We present a case of a 58-year-old male patient who presented to his primary care clinic with complaints of eye swelling and fatigue. Workup ultimately led to a diagnosis of AL amyloidosis secondary to myeloma based on SLiM-CRAB criteria. We discuss his diagnostic workup, treatment, and subsequent relapse.
