Your other renal values don't show abnormalities.

The CPK has to do with muscle damage mostly. And then too, it could be a poor lab error. So just having it redone at another time is what is needed at this point.

If you don't use drugs that raise it, or have muscle pain? Just get it retested in 6mos or so.

I don't have muscle pain, but I do have spasms and sometimes weakness. Which could also be anxiety.

Did you get tested for Mercury? If you have silver teeth fillings or eat a lot of cheap fish products, you could have mercury levels that can cause forms of neuropathy.

I am getting my mercury and heavy metal urine test tomorrow. I have a lot of old (1980s) silver fillings in my mouth. I am hoping that my tests show high mercury and/or low B12 (from blood test). At least that way I hope to know why I am having the same symptoms of neuropathy like you are having. The nerve zaps, tingling, and muscle twitches & spasms.

In 40+ years, I have NEVER been tested by my dozen of docs for VitB12. How ridiculous is that in today's modern medicine? I had to specifically REQUEST the B12 test and I am getting it for the first time. I had to self-educate myself via the internet. It's really sad that doctors do not test for B12 on a regular basis.

Koi13, I don't think it has been tested, I will bring this up to my doctor when I go Monday. I do have several fillings, I am 26 so most of mine would have came in the late 90's and on. I know how you feel about researching every possibility, it's very time consuming. I find myself putting other things off just to sit around on the computer for hours digging for any information that may be out there. Good luck and I hope you find answers soon.

Jake, your MCV is creeping up... not out of range yet, but in high normal. This means you may be low in B12...since MCV elevates when B12 is low.

Yes, I had an MRI done sometime last fall, and they said everything looked normal. I think I'm going to suggest I have one of my spine, because my left leg and lower left part of my back have been feeling strange the past couple weeks.
