How Does Low Muscle Enzyme Affect The Body?
My doctor s nurse just called me and told me my blood workup showed I had low muscle enzymes and low on potassium. What does low muscle enzymes do to my body, my heart, my neuropathy and my spine which is bad shape. Is there a cure or does it get worse. I am supposed to take two of my potassium pills and then take another blood test in ten days

Low LDH_5 levels in blood indicate muscle weakness and low serum K impairs muscle-nerve impulse conduction so that timely contraction of skeletal muscles become sluggish,the heart function too modifies with low pottasium and there is lethargy,weakness of muscles,aches and pains.Heart muscle condition also weakens
