Ck level in your blood

[Tim_Thorpe]

If your having a lupus flare would your ck level /creatine kinase rise and show up in a blood test ?

Been in so much pain lately in my arms elbows back etc like having the flue but with out the cold symptoms

This is to see whether your kidney function tests are OK. If it is affected your kidneys, the level would show this at some point. I am not the best person to ask, please talk to your doctor because you can't continue to suffer.

With good wishes,
