A member asked:
What do elevated muscle enzymes in blood work without muscle strains? does this mean i am going into kidney failure?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Only if very high: When very high it could lead to kidney failure that is reversible most of the time. To prevent that you need to increase fluid intake to maintain high urine output.
