Question 1

yes i have a muscle disease,mg. but if exercise weakens our muscles is it true just laying or sitting around alsoweaken them?

Accepted Answer

You can exercise: Myasthenia Gravis tends to produce a change in the muscle which is very similar to atrophy.  Regular, moderate exercise can combat atrophy.  Beneficial exercise is repetitive and done in a way that stops short of muscle fatigue.  The key is to do something both pleasant and not stressful which will help keep weight down and reaffirm the positive, emotional feelings you attain during exercise

Question 9

i had normal cpk aldolase esr repeatedly and other blood normal along with normal emg/ncv. normal skin biopsy. can you still have a muscle disease?

Accepted Answer

Difficult: This question (and the related one you asked) are very difficult because i don't have enough data.  The short answer is 'yes, maybe', but normal CPK and aldolase rule out a lot of possible muscle diseases.  You may need a spine MRI to evaluate possible spinal cord disorders, but your physicians (especially i hope a neurologist) can best judge the nature of your problem and how to investigate it.

Question 10

is it possible to have a muscle disease with normal cpk aldolase esr 7 times normal emg ncv and normal skin biopsy twice no weakness only burning pain?

Accepted Answer

Yes: There are many enzyme deficiency syndromes and types of muscle metabolic disorders. You may need to travel to a university medical center to get specific testing done. Was a muscle biopsy performed. Be aware that conditions such as fibromyalgia produce burning pain as well as tingling sensations in the hands and feet.
