CK 1402
Trying to minimize inflammation by going on a more restrictive diet (no bread, minimal sugar, no dairy, etc.)

Detailed Answer:
Good evening
Sorry for the delayed reply...Had a long duty today
Well, that s good that it is moving forward...Once the biopsy is out we should start treatment. I would suggest do get an ultrasound of the abdomen, mammogram and X Ray chest done as well...As in your age, we need to rule out other causes of muscle inflammation as well.
I hope the results come out and soon and the treatment is started soon...I would suggest avoid any over exertion for time being as it can strain the already inflamed muscles... And keep high on protein diet, for muscle regeneration.
Do let me know the MRI and Biopsy results...Interested to know what exactly is the diagnosis
