What Does Increased Muscle Enzymes Means?
I was told friday that my muscle enzymes are very elevated, & have been for several years, dr said hes not sure how this was overlooked, i asked what it means & he said typically indicates a muscle disease, so i got scared & left without talking to him further, I do have sore muscles & for yrs Ive had problems with my toes goin numb & my fingertips goin numb as well? I this really an indication of a muscle disease, & if so, which 1 would b most likely?

It's possibly a neuromuscular disorder which needs to be evaluated thoroughly with EMG, muscle biopsy, nerve conductance studies, neuronal antigen profile to rule out paraneoplastic syndrome. Since you're already having autoimmune disease. Please consult and follow up with your physician and neurologist.
