Hello, I am a 45 year old women with an elevated CK level. At last check, 1 week ago my level was at 3000, yes that is 3000 not 300.  It has been high since May and been raising ever since. My doctors cant seem to figure out what is wrong with me. they have tested, biopsied, and tested some more, and have no answers. they say I shouldnt be able to even walk, but I am . I cant do stairs, and any step up is difficult, curbs included. What do you think?
Hello, Thanks for the query to Chat Doctor. Forum. C K (40-150 U/L) i.e.creatine phospholipase (CK) in you case it is 3000 U/L. So high level may be due to .1 Skeletal muscular disease, including muscular dystrophy, myopathies, and polymyositis.2 Electrical cardioversion,3 hypothyroidism 4 stroke5 skeletal muscle damage due to trauma, convulsions and prolonged immobilizes. An important Chat Doctor. In my opinion mere elevation of C K is not a diagnostic finding until complete history is not known. So please upload all clinical as well test reports over this site for evaluation of diagnosis. Good luck.
