If you have other symptoms pointing to a myositis I'd seek further testing to confirm.
Yes, my neuro is one of the best for myositis and I see him for yearly check ups. At my last appointment, he felt that my summer issues pointed to the antibody being active again. However, by the time I had my visit, I was doing better. He said that I didn't need to repeat testing until I am experiencing weakness again, which makes sense to me. I go back in July. I will tell him about my tendon at that time.
