Default Metabolic myopathy??
Recently diagnosed with a metabolic myopathy. The rheumatologist's comment was "there's no cure or treatment, so it dosen't matter what kind you have". ???!!!

After reading more about the types, it seems like it's important to know which type you have.

Can anyone help me with this? How do I push the Dr. to go further with the diagnosis? Can the type be determined with a blood test, or only a muscle biopsy?

From what I've read, it's probably CPT or McArdles.

Thanks for your help.
