Slightly elavated ck levels
I’ve been experiencing body-wide fasciculations for a month now. It started in my face/eyes around 8 months ago, then spread. I get the occasional one in my tongue that I can feel when my tongue is at rest too. I can also see my tongue twitching constantly at rest without feeling it, . Additionally, I have a dent in my thigh which I’ve been worried is atrophy.
All my worries were then amplified as I’ve recently had a second blood test done, with my CK level being 198 U/L . although this is within my lab’s normal range, which is 33–200. I’m still extremely concerned, taking into consideration my twitching and information saying people with ALS usually have a CK that’s slightly elevated, at the upper end of normal, or around 200–500. Although mine hasn’t reached 200 yet, I’m still worried with it being at the upper end of normal and only 2 off.
