Annie, I do not think it is polymyositis because my creatine kinase (CK) was actually low so was my serum albumin.

The muscle weakness in my legs has gotten worse and I have it most of the day now. The muscles on the right side of my face are noticeably more droopy than the left. I have resolved the swallowing and chocking issues with changing the way I eat and drink. I had one instance of my head dropping, the same day that I could hardly move my legs. The constant fatigue has not changed much. The only other major symptom I have the does not fit MG is the diarrhea. Between the diarrhea and chewing issues I have lost 40 pounds in 6 months.

I do hope they diagnose something soon. I feel if my legs get much worse, I will need a walker,

thanks again,
kathie
