    Thank you Dr. Rohit Aggarwal for this information. I was diagnosed 7-19 and still learning day by day what is happening to me.
    I have a good doctor but you are the one that makes this understandable for me. With all the reading I have done, you are the one that makes the puzzle pieces fit.
    Please continue, I’m counting on you.

    This is a great primer, for people wondering what they should be asking for from their doctor, when often the doctor in many cases has never seen anyone with myositis. However, I would like you to address the incorrect diagnosis. In my case, the wrong type of myositis, by a medical team not familiar enough with the signs, but many people are told they have ALS, or MS, or even the famous "it's all in your head, you look fine." I think this is unfortunately all too common

      @@Myositis101I look forward to that video. I have just been tested for mnd but they say I don't have it. My symptoms seem like myositis. Would a mnd neurologist be able to recognise myositis?

    I was diagnosed with JDM in 1980 when I was 10. I have been in remission for decades (I am 50), but I have had several flares of psoriasis recently. I had a punch biopsy to be sure that it was psoriasis and not DM. My ALT and AST are "unusually high" and have caused my Dermatologist to stop my medication because she thinks it's damaging my liver. I'm wondering if those enzymes have been elevated since my diagnosis of JDM and are my "normal". I have been to a GI doc and had a negative MRI of the liver. Please - do those levels (AST and ALT) remain high forever, or could this be due to a reoccurrence of my JDM?

    If you have positive polymyositis antibodies do you still need positive ck and emg for diagnosis? My 13yr old daughter has had chronic muscle weakness and in severe cases accompanied difficulty breathing, u able to hold her head up etc. She was positive for anti jo antibodies but is not taking seriously by specialists because her ck levels are normal.

    Hello, I am trying to find information on Myositis unrelated to auto immune diseases. I have found that this can occur but no matter how I search for more information, only Myositis as autoimmune disease comes up. Are you able to direct me to a source on this? I’ve been completely inactive due to fibromyalgia for a few years. I started, very slowly, building up a walking routine to a few blocks most days and within a couple of months had diffuse, bilateral lower leg muscle fatigue/pain that resulted in discontinuation of this activity. I could not go on. So far, there is no relation to my knees or ankles. I go to PT hoping to resolve it. I appreciate any response you can give. Thank you!
