How To Treat Lichen Amyloidosis In The Future?

Hi, I am 38 female, 5.3 height, 46 Kgs weight (from Sri Lanka), suffering from Lichen Amyloidosis on my shins for more than 10 years. Doctors said there is no cure and I am only given skin restoration cream. Now I feel I am having several disorders such as chest pains, breathing difficulties, numbness in hands & feet, voice changes, and occasional skin disorders. I also found same types of small patches in chest. I often have skipping heart, I can heavily feel the heart beat through my head when I am resting. My current CRP test result is 5.2. Other blood tests are normal. I haven't recently done urine or a blood test to check amyloids. What are the urine & blood test names to findout amyloid rate in body? Also pls tell me which amyloidosis stage I am facing at the moment? I want to know whether I am in a serious condition and if so I need to take proper treatment. In Sri Lanka I could not find any doctor to guide me properly what to do. So I read internet articles & found it is something that I should not ignore. Pls advise me urgently.
Thank you so much.
