Detailed Answer:
Dear Sir,

Then you should first get your muscle enzymes done , CPK, LDH, Aldolase to look for any muscle involvement . Also get ANA , ESR done . If all this comes normal then evaluation for nerve involvement should be done . So we need to see these first , you can also discuss this with your treating doctor .
