Brief Answer: no need to worry.rest.hydration Detailed Answer: Hi, thanks for using HCM. I went through the query and understood your concern. Creatine kinase in blood / serum will rise if any problem in muscle, heart or brain. The most common cause is due to muscle injury. The values will rise more than 50 folds of normal. If any muscle injury or pathology in the muscle the enzyme creatine kinase will increase and suggest pathology in the muscle. Your value is slightly elevated. This should not be considered as pathology without any othe signs and symptoms as even with exercise or dehydration the value may raise. Even hypothyroidism can raise the values upto 5 fold. With multiple myeloma the value may slightly raise. So no need to be worried. Have good hydration and rest. The value will come to normal. I hope this information helps you. Feel free to ask if any further queries and I will be glad to answer them. Wish you good health. Regards
