CPK: You have mild increase in CPK, in most patients, who take oral fluids a CPK at this level should not cause kidney issues. The major issue your are facing is why to you have increased Aldolase and CPK and the biopsy was inconclusive. Suggest you see a Neurologist at a large teaching center and seek their input. Keep up with your fluid intake. Hope this helps.
