Hello
I'm in the middle of being worked up for "something neurological." My symptoms are: Double vision (4th nerve palsy) Trouble breathing Trouble swallowing Muscle weakness Muscle cramps Severe fatigue Complete loss of appetite Tests: Single fiber EMG-- normal Pulmonary function test (done 3 times)-- 28%, 55%, 75% Pulmonary stress test-- showed sudden drop in O2 with no apparent cause CPK-- 2000 Aldolase-- 14.9 Acetylcholine receptor antibodies-- negative My first neurologist specialized in MS, but that's been ruled out by a clean MRI. He believes I have MG so he's referred me to a second neurologist who handles patients with muscular diseases. I'm also being worked up by rheumatology but my autoimmune panels have all been negative. So here's where I'm confused-- everything I read suggests that CPK isn't elevated with MG. Does anyone have experience with getting an MG diagnosis and elevated CPK? Thanks! |
