Those are my results from the test.
Now I have to see a neuromuscular doc. I was referred to him once before but couldn't get in. It was a 1.5 year wait! |

OMG... that is too long. Can you try and find your own doctor?

My doc said that elevated creatinine kinase (CK) implies muscle inflammation which can occur after a strenuous workout (does not apply to me) or a long list of muscle disorders.
I thought the muscles and bones were merely responding to the nerve disorder but maybe not. |

The drugs on that list that would apply are:
Caffeine Lorazepam I did fast 12 hours prior to the test if that would make any difference. |

I need more than seven minutes with a doctor. It's obviously not a routine diagnosis and so like many others, I have to get in the back of the line at a new doctor and wait my turn, only to be seen for seven minutes again and referred somewhere else, again. It is very frustrating.

Beatle, adding to what mrsD wrote about your antibody levels, can you get your GP to refer you to a specialist clinical immunologist?
A clinical immunologist should be able to interpret those findings better than a GP can and, depending, will be able to recommend further investigations.
