Guest guest Posted April 25, 2008 Report Posted April 25, 2008 Had my NCV/EMG testing at the MDA clinic today and noticed that my lab results from a couple of weeks ago showed a high Creatinine. I am assuming it is CPK (the doc said he was going to do muscle enzymes, and if it was regular Creatinine test--I would be in dialysis!) Any others get high CPK with CMT 1A? I was diagnosed with a blood test already. Also, I was being nosy as the doc left my chart in the room--he didn't tell me anything about my lab results. I go back June 18. aaargh Mandy Quote
Guest guest Posted April 26, 2008 Report Posted April 26, 2008 My doctors told me that all CMT results show normal blood tests, and that only other MDA covered disorders show elevated levels. Good luck, Donna Quote
Guest guest Posted April 27, 2008 Report Posted April 27, 2008 Thanks for everyone's helpful replies. Since posting, I have read some other information about how even working out strenuously can cause CPK to be increased temporarily, (or some other muscle damaging situation, like a disease.) Then, there is the Creatinine test which tests for kidney function, and it says it can be LOW if there is a muscle degenerative disease. Very confusing. Mandy Quote
